Brownells #185-2 Magna-Tip Hex Bit

The Brownells Magna-Tip screwdriver offers gunsmiths and firearms enthusiasts a precise fit for nearly any gun screw they may encounter, as well as for various tasks around the house and garage. The true hollow-ground bit is engineered to transmit torque evenly and smoothly along the shank of the bit. This design not only facilitates efficient power transfer but also ensures complete metal-to-metal contact between the bit's tip and the entire screw slot. Consequently, maximum power can be applied, similar to the action of a finely tapered gun spring. In contrast, so-called "hollow-ground" screwdrivers that have been ground off square concentrate all torque pressures at the square edge of the grind along the tip. As any gunsmith knows, such a flaw in a spring can lead to breakage. Standard, straight-tapered screwdrivers direct all torque pressures to the fine edge of the screw slot. Additionally, due to their tapered design, the principles of simple physics cause the bit to be forced out of the slot. The bits used in Brownells Magna-Tip screwdrivers are specifically manufactured for heavy industry applications. These components are integral to high-speed, production-grade impact drivers, optimized for precision screw setting in large-scale manufacturing environments They must be engineered with an optimal blend of hardness and durability to ensure maximum structural integrity and resistance to wear
