Screwdrivers

**Amp David** · 11-12-2009

Does anyone use or have used Wera screwdrivers. Looking to buy some new tools and saw the Wera brand. Look good in the catalouges, but never heard them mention before by anyone.

Nope never used em, they are too cheap to be any good! it's Irazola for me!

Wera are a good quality premium brand, i use their screwdriver bits in my cordlesses. however i dont like the feel of their vde drivers, for me its worth spending the extra couple of quid on izzys

Hi.

I'd stack Wera alongside C.K, Draper, Stanley....middle of the road pretty solid.

Izzys top dog though.

Iv just had some wera, the red vde ones they not bad, they not too bad, but im going to invest in some of these irazola everyone raves about

**dragon-av** · 13-12-2009

anyone fancy these CNSGDX60, Set, Screwdriver, Combination, Non-Conductive Composite, Slim Tip, 6 pcs.

these look good IZ202032 Irazola VDE 7 pc Tekno+ Screwdriver Set from The Crimp Company

Wow......£150 for that first set.

That set of Izzys is like the one I have, very good.

I wouldn't buy another Snap On "anything" so long as I have a hole in my rear end lol

For their price the "TOOL" would have to polish the car and make the tea too

So in laymens terms whats the difference between Irazolas and say CK or Stanley ?

**Eggster71** · 15-12-2009

The only drawback with the Irazolas is the length of the pozi ones, a cheapo draper one will often get into more awkward spaces. Also the majority of irazola kits will only come with phillips and not pozi drivers!
They used to be for sale all over and you could take snapped ones back for a free swap but I hardly see them now. The kewtechnic copys seem pretty good so far.

Just ordered one of those snap on drivers just for interest's sake. Have used all the above drivers have found the Bahco soft grip ones best, especially the slotted drivers really thin handles and shafts to get right into the back of CU etc.

Irazola are far & away the best I've used although I do agree with Eggster71 about the pozzi's. Also if you do go for Irazola get the Techno+ not the sensor range - better handles IMO

**pennywise** · 10-01-2010

It was out of stock when I ordered it and the weather hasn't helped we haven't had mail for 4 days so still waiting with baited breath

irazola's are the worst screwdrivers! ive gone through around 5 or 6 termi's, the tips on them just snap. recently my pozi has gone aswell. just moved to stanley ones, they are upto now much better
