Hex screwdriver Wera 967 XL HF T 40 — hex bit T40, long shaft, high-torque

The Wera 967 XL HF T 40 is a hex (Torx) screwdriver engineered for tasks that require extended reach and high torque transfer. It combines a long shaft with a T40 Torx bit and a high‑torque handle geometry to provide secure engagement with Torx fasteners in recessed or hard‑to‑access locations. The design supports both professional workshop use and demanding DIY projects where reliable fastening and controlled torque are important.

Advantages

The extended shaft allows access to screws located deep inside assemblies or behind obstacles while maintaining precise control. The high‑torque handle and bit interface are optimized to minimize cam‑out and improve torque transmission without increasing hand strain. Durable bit material and a rigid shaft construction ensure repeatable performance and long tool life under frequent use.

Suitable for

• Assembling and disassembling machinery with recessed Torx T40 fasteners
• Automotive repair tasks requiring extra reach into engine bays or gearboxes
• Electronics and appliance servicing where components are located in tight spaces
• Production and maintenance work in workshops and industrial environments
• Home improvement and DIY projects involving Torx T40 screws

Key specifications

• Bit type: Torx (T40)
• Shaft: extended/long shaft for increased reach
• Torque design: high‑torque geometry for improved torque transfer
• Drive end: hex/round driver end compatible with hand screwdriver operation
• Construction: hardened bit material and rigid shaft for durability
• Grip: ergonomically shaped handle for controlled manual torque application

How to use

Select the Wera 967 XL HF T 40 when a T40 Torx bit and additional reach are needed. Insert the T40 tip into the Torx fastener, ensure full engagement of the bit in the screw recess, and apply steady, even turning force. Use controlled pressure to prevent slipping; if a fastener is heavily corroded or stuck, apply penetrating lubricant and allow it to work before attempting removal. For assembly tasks, apply the appropriate final torque using a torque tool if precise torque values are required.

Usage recommendations

Use the screwdriver for manual fastening and loosening; avoid using with power tools unless specified by the manufacturer. Inspect the bit tip regularly for wear and replace if rounded or damaged to maintain secure engagement. Store the tool dry and clean to prevent corrosion and preserve performance.
