Insulated Phillips #2 Screwdriver
The WIHA 32146 is a hand screwdriver with an insulated shaft designed for work on live electrical circuits up to the rated voltage. It fits Phillips #2 fasteners and suits electricians, maintenance technicians and DIY users who need verified insulation on every job.
Thermals noise and power draw
As a manual tool it produces no heat, no audible noise and draws no power during normal use. The black-oxide coating on the tip and shank adds corrosion resistance while the non-magnetic finish prevents unwanted attraction to small ferrous parts.
Build quality and daily use
The round shank measures 8 1/4 inches overall, giving reach into recessed terminals without excessive bulk. Insulation is moulded directly onto the shank for durability, and the black-oxide tip resists cam-out on Phillips #2 screws. The tool is not ESD-safe, non-sparking or magnetic, so users needing those specific protections should select a different model.

Questions about this item
How do I install the insulated #2 Phillips tip onto the shank without damaging the black-oxide coating?
The tip and shank are forged as one piece; no separate installation is needed. Avoid striking the black-oxide finish with a hammer or using pliers on the shank, which can chip the coating.
What maintenance will the insulated screwdriver need over time?
Wipe the handle and shank clean after each use; inspect the black-oxide coating for chips and the insulation for cracks before working near live circuits. No lubrication is required.
At what point does the insulation become the limiting factor during sustained electrical work?
The tool carries a California Proposition 65 warning for chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm; replace it immediately if the insulation shows any cracking, discoloration, or wear that could expose the conductor.
