6 useful screwdriver attachments that few people know about

Using different accessories, a drill and a screwdriver can be turned into a universal tool that can be used to perform very unusual tasks. Let's look at 6 attachments that few people use yet.

1. Magnetic bit attachment for holding screws

When working with a screwdriver, you often have to hold the screws so that they do not fall off the bit. Having a magnetic attachment, you can handle screws using one hand.

A small magnet holds the screws to the bit, so they don't fall off even when shaken.

2. Nozzle for stripping core insulation and twisting wires

Connecting wire strands manually requires first stripping them of insulation and then twisting them, which takes several minutes. Using a special screwdriver attachment allows you to do this in seconds.


The equipment strips the insulation from the conductors and twists them tightly in regular turns. It can connect a whole bunch of wires together at one time.

3. Tap attachment

By installing a tap in a screwdriver, you can cut threads in soft metal parts in a couple of seconds.In order for the tool to last longer and the thread to be of better quality, the tap must be lubricated before each run. Despite all its advantages, a tap rotated with a screwdriver is unsuitable for processing steel parts.

4. Universal key for any fastener

The universal attachment allows you to rotate nuts, screws and bolts of any shape, except round. It is similar to a regular head, but with internal spring-loaded inserts in the form of thin rods.

When they come into contact with the hardware, they are pressed along the fastening contour, after which the key takes the required shape. Just one such tool can replace a set of ratchet sockets. It will be indispensable when working with non-standard hardware.

5. Tool for chamfering rods and tubes

This attachment has a similar design to a pencil sharpener. It is used for chamfering rods and other rolled metal with a round cross-section. This is useful if you need to fix the end of a cut bolt or stud with damaged threads.


The nozzle is capable of processing workpieces of different diameters.

6. Drill sharpener with jig for various drills

This equipment allows you to sharpen drills for metal at the correct angle. It consists of a guide conductor and an abrasive, which rotates and sharpens.
