Wiha 26058 Phillips PH 1 Screwdriver Bit

The Wiha 26058 Phillips PH 1 screwdriver bit is a professional-grade tool engineered for precision and durability. Crafted from high-quality chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel, this 175 mm long bit features a through-hardened construction and a chrome-plated finish to resist wear and corrosion. The specialized ChromTop tip ensures a perfect fit with fasteners, reducing the risk of cam-out and damage during operation.

Advantages

This screwdriver bit significantly increases work efficiency through its extra slim blade geometry, which is specifically designed to reach fasteners in confined or narrow spaces where standard tools might struggle. The inclusion of the Wiha ChromTop finish provides a precise, secure connection to the screw head, ensuring consistent performance. Furthermore, the dark blue color-coding allows for quick and easy identification of the tool size within a professional toolkit.

Suitable for

• Fastening tasks in confined or narrow access areas
• Professional mechanical and assembly applications
• DIY projects requiring high-precision Phillips PH 1 screwdriving
• Controlled fastening operations when used with compatible torque tools

When it may not be suitable

This bit is not intended for heavy-duty impact driving or high-torque applications that exceed the specifications of manual screwdriving. It may also be unsuitable for fasteners that do not match the PH 1 profile, as using the wrong size can lead to damage to both the tool and the screw head.

Key specifications

• Drive type: Phillips PH 1
• Material: Chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel
• Length: 175 mm
• Finish: Chrome-plated with ChromTop tip
• Standards: DIN ISO 8764-1
• Color-coding: Dark blue

How to use

To use the Wiha 26058, insert the bit into a compatible manual screwdriver handle or a torque-controlled tool. Ensure the tip is fully seated into the Phillips PH 1 screw head before applying pressure. Maintain a perpendicular angle to the fastener to ensure optimal torque transfer and to prevent the bit from slipping. After use, wipe the bit clean to maintain the integrity of the chrome-plated surface.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your fastener size is PH 1 to ensure a proper fit
• Check the compatibility of your tool handle or torque driver with the bit length
• Assess if the 175 mm length is appropriate for the depth of your workspace

Usage recommendations

For optimal longevity and performance, always match the bit size exactly to the screw head and avoid using the tool as a pry bar or chisel. Store in a dry environment to prevent oxidation.
