Stubby Slotted Screwdriver
The Klein Tools 409-600-1 is a compact hand screwdriver built for slotted fasteners with a 5/16 inch tip. Its 3 1/4 inch overall length suits tight spaces where a full-size driver will not fit. The cushion grip reduces hand fatigue during repetitive turning. Chrome-plated shank resists corrosion in damp environments.
Electricians and maintenance technicians
Professionals who need a short slotted driver for panel work, outlet boxes or appliance repair will find the stubby length convenient. Users requiring Phillips, Torx or hex profiles should select a different tip style. The tool is not insulated, so it is unsuitable for live electrical circuits. Non-magnetic tip does not hold screws during placement.
Sustained use with heat-treated shank
Heat-treated steel shank maintains tip geometry under continuous torque without twisting. Chrome plating withstands repeated exposure to moisture and cleaning solvents. Cushion grip stays secure when hands become oily or sweaty during long jobs. Corrosion resistance preserves the working surfaces across extended service life.

Questions about this item
Does the 409-600-1 require a specific screw head size to engage properly?
The tip is sized at 5/16 in for slotted fasteners, so the screw head must match that width for a secure fit.
Can the chrome-plated shank withstand contact with older, corroded fasteners without damage?
Yes, the chrome plating provides corrosion resistance and the heat-treated shank resists twisting when turning stuck screws.
How can I verify the cushion grip is still effective after extended use?
Check that the white grip material shows no cracks, flattening or separation from the shank; it should still feel firm and non-slip in hand.
