Wiha 26061 screwdriver bit

The Wiha 26061 screwdriver bit is a slim, 175 mm long hex bit designed for precision fastening of metric hex screws (2.5 mm). Made from chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel with through-hardening and chrome plating, it offers a durable working tip and a ChromTop® finish for accurate fit and reduced wear. Colour-coded red for easy identification, this lightweight 18 g bit is suitable for tasks in confined spaces where a slim blade geometry improves access and control.

Advantages

Extra slim blade geometry enables access in narrow or confined areas while maintaining control during fastening. The high-quality chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel construction is through-hardened and chrome-plated for durability and corrosion resistance. Wiha ChromTop® on the tip ensures a precise fit with hex screws and helps reduce cam-out. Colour-coding simplifies tool selection in a set.

How to use

Insert the hex bit into a compatible bit holder, screwdriver handle, or power tool with a matching hex shank. Engage the correct 2.5 mm metric hex screw head, apply controlled torque according to the fastener specification, and turn until the screw is secured. Use steady pressure to keep the bit seated and to reduce the risk of slipping or rounding the screw head.

Recommendations

For prolonged tool life, avoid using the bit at excessive torque levels or for prying. Keep the bit clean and store it in a dry place; replace the bit if tip wear or deformation appears to maintain a reliable fit and safe operation.
