This tool is a specific type of driver, characterized by its six-sided (hexagonal) tip and 10-millimeter size. It is designed to engage with fasteners possessing a matching internal hexagonal recess. This precise fit ensures optimal torque transfer and minimizes the risk of stripping or damaging the fastener head. A common example of its use is assembling furniture or working with mechanical components requiring secure fastening.
The precise fit offered by this driver type allows for efficient tightening and loosening of fasteners, crucial for applications demanding accuracy and secure connections. Its widespread adoption stems from the hexagonal recess’s superior torque handling compared to slotted or Phillips drives. This design minimizes slippage and cam-out, safeguarding both the tool and the fastener. Historically, the hexagon drive has become a prevalent standard due to its robustness and reliability.
