5/16" Imperial Nutsetter
This Apex nutsetter accepts 5/16 inch fasteners with a 1/4 inch hex insertion shank. The six inch overall length provides reach for recessed hardware. It is sold as a single piece for technicians and DIY users who drive hex-head screws and bolts.
Impact rated alloy steel construction
The unfinished alloy steel body is impact rated for use with powered drivers. A magnetised tip holds fasteners during placement. Normal use produces typical hand-tool noise and vibration without excessive heat buildup in the tool itself.
Magnetised tip aids fastener retention
The magnetic tip reduces dropped screws in tight cavities. No slide-to-clean mechanism is fitted, so debris must be cleared manually. The unfinished finish offers no corrosion coating, so storage in a dry environment is advisable.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 5/16" hex nutsetter onto my impact driver, and what step is often missed?
Insert the 1/4" hex shank fully into the driver chuck until it locks; the step people miss is not seating it completely, which causes wobble under impact.
What maintenance or replacement will the unfinished alloy steel nutsetter need over time?
The unfinished surface will rust without regular oiling; replace the nutsetter once the 5/16" hex opening rounds out or the magnetised tip loses grip.
What limit appears first when driving fasteners continuously with this 6" impact-rated nutsetter?
Heat buildup in the alloy steel body becomes the limiting factor during sustained high-torque use, reducing tip magnetism and risking distortion.
