14 best sets of bits for the screwdriver

Without a tool such an electric tool as a screwdriver is completely useless. It gives bits the opportunity to spin quickly and a lot. Of course, the quality of the working tool is important - tooling, washable after the third screw is not uncommon in the domestic market.

Our review presents the best bit sets for the screwdriver, which differ in quality and durability. The rating of models in different categories is based on the characteristics declared by the manufacturer and the evaluations of specialists using these materials in their work.

The best sets of bits of the middle segment

This category includes the best tooling kits for the screwdriver. Here is the most balanced ratio of cost and quality of materials.

3 HITACHI 754000 (100 pcs.)

Third place ranking gets the largest set of bits of this collection. Looking at this set, it seems that Hitachi wanted to compensate for not the most reliable tooling with quantity ... and this is true, but only partially. In the case of careful use (without working with large overloads and failures), the bits remain fresh for a long time, and if you consider that each item is at least duplicated (and the most running bits are present in a set of seven pieces), then this set will be enough for about five to seven years of moderate exploitation. In addition to bits, it includes a standard set of magnetic holders: quick-detachable and versatile, without any serious complaints about quality.

All variety of equipment is packed in a modest, inconspicuous and compact case, which is rather an advantage than a disadvantage. Given all the advantages, let's say that a set fully justifies its cost, but requires adequate treatment.

2 KRAFTOOL 26154-H42 (42 pcs.)

On the favorable side, another contender for the title of the best proved himself - a set of bits from the nominally German manufacturer Kraftool. All items contained in it are made of chrome-vanadium alloy, which has high strength, as well as the optimal balance in the pair "hardness - plasticity".

The decision of manufacturers to relate the case to the number of items contained looks not quite correct, therefore, many buyers have a completely natural dissonance. The fact is that, by definition, the set contains 42 items, although in fact there are 41 of them. A small oversight in the manufacturer’s camp (the goods are made in China) quite unexpectedly became the main problem. If you look at the kit from a quality point of view, it will not cause any special complaints. Very pleased with the presence of an adapter in it with a standard shank size (1/4 inch) per square 3/8 ”.In general, it is a worthy candidate for the purchase, despite the presence of such an obvious oversight.

1 Bosch 2607017164 (43 pcs.)

In recent years, the name of the company "Bosch" has become synonymous with the word quality. Even the fact that most of the products are manufactured in China does not serve as a hindrance to this. The Bosch 2607017164 bit set is one of those, however, it is very popular and honored among domestic users.

Boxing includes 43 items:

• six bits 75 millimeters long;
• 32 standard bits under the length of 25 millimeters;
• several magnetic holders (universal and quick-change).

Among the main qualities of the set are really strong material, labeled according to a certain type, a convenient rubberized case and magnetic holders, which cause some resonance among the owners. In some assemblies, these holders are weak and do not provide for proper bit fixing, while others fix bits tightly. Whatever it was, the kit fully pays for the costs and ensures proper operation over a long period of time.

Best Premium Bit Sets

The category contains sets of bits from different manufacturers with one thing in common: these are the best deals on the market. They are the first in terms of versatility, quality, durability and, of course, price - such equipment cannot be cheap.

4 Wiha XLSelector T-Bit (41830)

The equipment for the Wiha screwdriver is distinguished by high reliability and quality. This set consists of 30 short bits (25 mm) with a tip of three types (PH, SW, TORX) and a universal magnetic holder. The T-Bit label indicates that this product has increased strength compared to standard bits. The XLSelector T-Bit will last 120 times longer - the manufacturer claims so, and there is no reason to doubt his words.

In addition, despite its small size, the bits have a torsion part and can be successfully used with impact screwdrivers. It is hidden under the plastic, which glows in the ultraviolet spectrum - this facilitates the search for fallen bits. And behind it is definitely worth bending down - the company gives a lifetime warranty on this set. By the way, high-strength plastic ergonomic pencil case is also resistant to external influences and will serve not only the owner, but also his heir.

3 Makita B-36170 (47 pcs.)

Opens the top three premium sets Makita B-36170 - a great set of Japanese manufacturers of construction equipment. High quality bits are beyond doubt - they are all made of high strength chrome-vanadium steel. According to the generally accepted standard, the kit contains bits for all types of track splines, be it straight, cross (and serif cross, called PZ), hexagonal or star-shaped, necessary for a strong tightening of fasteners. In addition, the kit is prudently equipped with end heads from 5 to 11 millimeters.

Despite the fact that the kit is intended for electric tools, it also has a “manual screwdriver” called a screwdriver. For reliable fixation of the bits in the cartridge provides a magnetic holder, unanimously liked even meticulous users.As regards the cost, Makita B-36170 hardly falls short of the premium - the set goes to such a high rank solely due to the high quality of the rigging.

2 Milwaukee Shockwave (56 pcs.)

Milwaukee is strikingly different from its competitors by its ardent support of its own corporate identity, and is rightly considered to be major players in the construction equipment market. Not surprisingly, their 56 Bit Milwaukee Shockwave serial set wins the second line of our ranking.

The main difference of this kit from others is the geometry of the working part of the nozzles. Each individual bit is designed in accordance with the proprietary technology of the Shock Zone, which prevents the working part from breaking due to excessive pressure. The high internal elasticity and low susceptibility to shock loads are ensured by the aspect of the unique shape and heat treatment, prudently incorporated into the technology complex. In general, the set has no serious flaws and is able to serve for many years, as eloquently testify to user feedback.

1 Metabo 626704000 (71 pcs.)

Real aestheticism for any master, attractiveness in every single element. Only by breaking into the notorious advertising lyrics can one truly describe this unique set of bits from another German company. Metabo 626704000 is a combination of a stunning look and equally outstanding performance, fine-tuning a standard chromium and vanadium alloy to optimal mechanical performance.

Each bit, depending on the type of slot, has its own color marking, which makes it possible to change the tooling on the screwdriver automatically after a short adaptation to the set. To the great joy of users, manufacturers from Metabo prudently added bits with an elongated base (75 mm) to the kit, since working with standard 25 millimeters is often very difficult. The case also does not fail: compact and light, it does not contain anything extra and takes up little space on the tool shelf. In the aggregate of all the listed benefits, this set is worthy of the highest praise, even if it is not the lowest cost.

The best bit sets: minicades

Mini bits bits for the screwdriver are highly ergonomic - it is not only pleasant to work with them, but also convenient.

3 Ryobi 5132002257 (40 pcs.)

The set of bits from Ryobi is very difficult to attribute to the mini-cases for one simple reason - the dimensions of this kit closely match the standard dimensions of full sets. However, this does not detract from the high quality of the equipment contained in it.

As in many other sets, the basic rate in Ryobi 5132002257 is made on duplication of the most running bits, and in the variant of length both 25 and 50 millimeters. All nozzles are made of high-strength tool steel, and, to everyone's surprise, despite the fact that it is not the highest cost, it withstands workloads perfectly. The main claims concern the design of the magnetic holder. If in competitive models this item is designed as a massive sleeve with a magnetic base recessed into it, then its design does not inspire much confidence, representing, in fact, a long sleeve that is pressed onto a hexagonal shank. But at the sight of the cost of this, you simply close your eyes - the set looks very attractive, especially when visually comparing with the other assortment.

2 Metabo 630454000 (20 pcs.)

The smallest and in combination the most expensive set of nozzles for the screwdriver is in third place in the ranking of the best. The case of the Metabo 630454000 holds only 19 bits and a standard magnetic head, but the amount is more than offset by the highest quality. And it's not just about the steel used: the body of the bit has an increased cross section, which creates additional resistance to the resulting torque.

Actually, this set no longer contains any features: the main points are associated with a small compact case, clips (holders for bits) which can be removed, as well as an increased margin of safety of the nozzles themselves, whose moderate operation will take an enormous amount of time.

1 Bosch X-Pro 2607017037 (25 pcs.)

The next representative of Bosch is an image of a purely working set without avenues of aesthetics and other surroundings. Very practical, compact and at the same time reliable, this kit also won a large number of consumer reviews, which equally flatteringly commented on the high quality of the component bits.

In addition to the standard set of short 25-mm nozzles, the elongated 50-millimeter bits got into the X-Pro set 2607017037 set, for which Bosch would like to thank especially. The situation with the magnetic holder came out almost identical to Ryobi, but here it inspires much more confidence. But the main advantage of the kit lies in the design of the case. X-Pro 2607017037 is equipped with inclined clips and, instead of frantically pulling every single item from a static position, it is enough just to take any of them with a flick of the wrist, and after use also just put it back. It is for customer focus that this set conquers the first line of the rating in the mini-case category.

Top Torsion Bit Sets

This type of tooling is specifically designed for high-performance tangential screwdrivers. The difference from the usual bits is that between the shank and the slots is a narrower insert - torsion. As a rule, this area is covered with plastic insulation, but it is better to focus on packaging - sellers often sell the usual elongated bits as shock.

4 Dewalt IMPACT Torsion DT70560T

A popular American brand produces not only a reliable tool. The Dewalt IMPACT Torsion DT70560T impact driver tooling set is capable of providing the owner with the necessary slots for a long time. The size range is not just ascending - the most popular sizes are supplied in larger quantities, so in case of wear you will not have to buy a new bit.

So, in one of the best and well-designed sets there is an increased number of the following sizes: PH2 (5), PH3 (2), PZ2 (10), PZ3 (3), T25 (2), T30 (3). Such an arrangement does not deserve anything but respect - the manufacturer collected the most demanded and popular material for professional work, and not just released a set of bits in a beautiful package.

3 BOSCH IMPACT CONTROL + QUICKRELEASE BOSCH 2.608.522.327

The world-famous manufacturer Bosch has released a line of bits of the Impact Control series, which are distinguished by maximum strength due to the reinforced torsion zone. This tool has proven itself when carrying out large volumes of work with impact screwdrivers. The Bosch Impact Control set we are considering includes six impact nozzles. They are unique, and each has a laser label manufacturer.

A magnetic holder with a unique quick-release fastener and a long leg helps to securely and quickly fix the bit. The Bosch Impact Control Kit is user-friendly and designed for a long service life.

2 Metabo Impact

For powerful screwdrivers, the professional set of bits from the German manufacturer Metabo Impact is perfectly suited, which comes with two types of PZ and T nozzles of various sizes and a magnetic holder.This tool is made of vanadium steel with a chrome-plated coating, thanks to which it has a long service life and can be used at maximum loads.

The Metabo Impact bit set has a convenient plastic cradle, which greatly simplifies storage and transportation. All products of this manufacturer are certified and meet the quality standards of the European market, which indicates its reliability and durability.

1 WERA BIT IMPAKTOR SET WE-057690

Large and convenient to use, a set of high-quality nozzles for percussion instruments. WERA BIT IMPAKTOR SET WE-057690 will be the best choice for a professional. The set includes 29 bits, which are located in a convenient stand with a soft backing and are marked by colors, which greatly simplifies their extraction and selection during work. Also, the kit includes a magnetic holder with a spring retaining ring, which ensures a reliable fixation of the nozzle in any position of the tool.

In the manufacture of percussion bits WERA BIT IMPAKTOR SET WE-057690 uses a system TriTorsion, which has double twisting zones. Even with very intensive work, these tips demonstrate excellent performance. Accidental displacement of the bit from the screw head (self-tapping screw) is practically eliminated due to spraying of the splined part of the tool from the diamond grit on the edge.
