  • 2 in. length keeps bits accessible in tight spaces
  • Proprietary steel resists daily job-site wear
  • Essential for onsite and home drilling tasks

Quick-Change Bit Holder for Drills

The Apex M-490-2-OR magnetic bit holder accepts 1/4 in hex power-drive bits for fast swaps on any compatible drill or driver. Its proprietary steel construction resists daily job-site wear while keeping bits secure. The two-inch overall length suits tight workspaces and general-purpose fastening tasks. It is aimed at tradespeople and DIYers who value rapid bit changes.

Fits Standard Hex Drives, Frees Up Bit Storage

A 1/4 in shank slips directly into common drill chucks and quick-change adapters without extra sleeves. The magnetic tip holds insert bits firmly so they do not drop during overhead or angled work. Users can leave a tray of bits at the bench and carry only the holder on their belt. Builders needing a longer reach or a different drive profile will need a separate accessory.

Durable Steel Handles Everyday Torque

Proprietary steel withstands repetitive impacts and high-torque applications without deforming. The compact holder adds minimal rotating mass, keeping drill balance and vibration low during extended use. No external power or lubrication is required beyond normal tool maintenance. Operators expecting extreme shock loads should verify suitability for their specific driver model.

Questions about this item

How long is the holder before it becomes awkward in tight spaces?

The overall length is 2 in, so it stays compact enough for most drill chucks and right-angle attachments.

Does the magnet lose grip when the bit gets hot from all-day driving?

The proprietary steel body resists heat build-up, and the magnetic insert holds standard 1/4 in bits through continuous use.

What shank size must my drill or driver accept for this holder to fit?

It has a 1/4 in hex power drive shank, matching the chuck on most cordless drills and impact drivers.
