HEX Ball Screwdriver, 8.0mm x 163mm – Professional Long-Reach Tool
Brief Overview
This 8.0mm HEX ball screwdriver delivers precise, angled fastening in confined spaces where straight-on access isn't possible. The 163mm shaft length extends your reach into recessed or hard-to-access mounting points—ideal for machinery assembly, equipment maintenance, and precision work. If your customers need multiple sizes, we also stock compact 4mm and 5mm hex ball drivers for lighter-duty applications, as well as complete 9-piece hex ball screwdriver sets for full shop coverage.
Key Features
- 8.0mm HEX Drive – Direct-fit fastener engagement; no wobble or rounding
- 163mm Overall Length – Extended reach for recessed or hard-to-access mounting points
- Ball-End Tip – Allows up to 25–30° angled engagement without twisting or cam-out
- Hexagonal Steel Shaft – Black-oxide finish resists corrosion; matte surface reduces glare
- Ergonomic Two-Tone Handle – Black grip body with red/orange inserts for comfortable control and visual differentiation
- Contoured Grip Design – Finger grooves and textured ribs distribute pressure; reduces hand fatigue during extended use
- Hanging Hole – Lanyard attachment point for tool tethering and organization
- Hex Collar Transition – Reinforced junction between handle and shaft for durability
Why This Drives Reseller Profit
Wide Application Range: Heavy-duty enough for industrial assembly lines, precise enough for electronics and precision equipment work. One SKU covers multiple customer verticals—assembly shops, maintenance crews, equipment manufacturers, and service centers.
Bulk Order Advantage: The 8.0mm size is a high-turnover item in professional shops. Stock this alongside the 6.0mm and 10mm versions to build a complete size range and increase basket size per customer.
Durability = Repeat Business: The matte black-oxide finish and reinforced handle design extend tool life, reducing replacement frequency—but when technicians lose or damage tools, they'll need new stock fast.
Margin Protection: Quality construction and ergonomic design command a professional price point. Position this as "industrial-grade" to justify margins over budget alternatives.
