3/8 in. Extra Long Magnetic Impact Hex Chuck Driver
The Malco MSHXL38IS is a 3/8 in. extra long magnetic impact hex chuck driver built for professional fastening tasks. Its distinctive blue finish identifies it as impact-grade, machined for positive engagement under high torque. The spring-loaded floating magnet holds fasteners securely while preventing breakage from impact stress or tall hex heads. Ideal for technicians who need reach and durability in a single bit.
Thermals, noise and power draw
As a non-powered hand tool accessory, this chuck driver produces no heat, noise or electrical draw during use. It transmits torque from the impact driver directly to the fastener without adding vibration or resistance. The precision machining ensures smooth engagement, reducing wear on both the bit and the driver anvil. Performance depends entirely on the impact tool supplying the force.
Upgrade considerations
This driver replaces standard-length or non-magnetic hex bits that lack impact-rated construction or a floating magnet. The upgrade is worth it when fasteners sit deep in recesses, when hex heads are tall enough to contact a fixed magnet, or when repeated impact cycles snap lesser bits. It is not suited for users who only drive screws occasionally with a drill driver, or who need a different hex size than 3/8 in.
Highlights
- Extra-long 38 in. reach for deep access
- Spring-loaded floating magnet prevents breakage under impact
- Impact-grade machining ensures positive fastener engagement
- Distinctive blue finish identifies impact-rated durability
- Magnetic hex chuck holds bits securely during driving

Questions about this item
How do you install the 3/8 in. magnetic hex chuck driver in an impact driver?
Insert the 3/8 in. hex shank fully into the impact driver chuck until it locks; the step often missed is seating the spring-loaded floating magnet so it can retract and prevent breakage under impact stress.
What maintenance or replacement will the magnetic hex chuck driver need later?
The spring-loaded floating magnet can wear or lose retention over time; if fasteners no longer hold securely, replace the driver to maintain fail-proof engagement.
What limit shows up first under sustained impact use?
The magnetic retention is the first limit; continuous high-torque impacts can weaken the spring-loaded floating magnet, reducing its ability to hold fasteners securely.
