Hammer thru screwdrivers?
 

I bought myself a set yesterday! Never used them before in over 50 years of spannering/mechanicing. Am I becoming a brute or is there more rust about? :icon_lol:
Maybe I'm just getting weaker!:icon_rolleyes:

Hi Mike.
Had some for years now and they do come in handy with damage screws or torx

Yes,
Excellent screwdrivers, I too have had a set for years, very handy to reform worn cross heads, and can be used as an impact driver if used carefully.

Me too. Had one for donkeys years.--( Originally used by Noah. ) :icon_rolleyes:

My spannering is now limited to anything that can be done without having to get underneath a car (SWMBO tells me !) so I no longer have my Rover. My Sportage (which is very agricultural underneath) seems to have lots of cross-head fixings, so they will definitely come in handy. Cheers folks. Have a good'un!:icon_confused:

Yes Hammer through are a great addition to any toolkit. I bought my first set about 3 years ago and have never regretted the purchase.

Have also had them in the toolcase for years Steve. Useful when they are needed. :}

Have to ask: what do they do?

The shaft of the screwdriver goes right through the end of the handle so you can hit it with a hammer without shattering the handle material, useful for reforming damaged heads on tight screws.
