Yato YT-28174 Insulated Flathead Screwdriver 3.5x100mm

The Yato YT-28174 is a professional insulated flathead screwdriver designed for precision and safety in electrical applications. Featuring a 3.5mm flat tip and a 100mm shaft, this tool is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of working with electrical installations and devices under voltage up to 1000V AC.

Advantages

This screwdriver is constructed from high-quality S2 steel, ensuring exceptional durability and a hardness rating of HRC 56-60 for long-lasting performance. The multi-component handle is VDE-certified and features an ergonomic design with anti-slip mini-grooves and notches, providing a secure and comfortable grip. The insulation not only protects the user from electric shock but also prevents accidental scratching of sensitive materials like copper, brass, or aluminum.

Suitable for

• Electrical installation work
• Maintenance of devices under voltage up to 1000V AC
• Precision fastening in low-voltage environments
• Tasks requiring non-conductive tool surfaces

When it may not be suitable

This tool is not intended for heavy-duty mechanical prying or high-torque applications that exceed the capacity of a 3.5mm flathead tip. It should not be used on circuits exceeding 1000V AC.

Key specifications
