Up to 33 per cent narrower than standard insulated tools and featuring exclusive integrated insulation technology, the Wiha family of Slim Technology VDE hand tools now help tradesmen out of more tight spots than ever before.
Designed to give better access to recessed screws whilst fully conforming to all safety and VDE standards, the breadth of tools now featuring Wiha’s Slim technology is truly unrivalled, ensuring there is an option available for any situation.
Giving protection up to 1,000 volts, the Wiha SlimVario screwdriver offers peace of mind when working on electrical projects. Unlike with many VDW screwdrivers, the built-in insulation does not obstruct or prevent access to low-lying fastening elements. Instead the protective insulation is simply sprayed directly on to the end of the blade, so it stays super-slim and makes even the trickiest of fastening positions easily accessible.
For maximum efficiency on site, the Wiha 16-piece SlimVario Screwdriver Wallet Set makes interchanging blades a quick and simple process, making it suitable for use on a multitude of tasks. A quick-release bit holder to accept the blades is integrated into the handle and also features a free-spin sleeve for speedy operation. Alongside the bit holder, the 16-piece set also comprises a 3mm Slotted Voltage Tester and Torx, Pozi and Phillips blades in a wide range of sizes.
Giving just as much breadth of range, whilst eliminating the danger of over or under-tightening of terminals, Wiha’s Slim Technology can also be found on its TorqueVario VDE screwdrivers. As Bardo Electrical of Doncaster says: “I can guarantee the correct tightening of the screw and it happily allows me to walk away with peace of mind.”
Featuring the same high standards of quality and reliability is Wiha’s SlimFix screwdriver, which is available in a single, two-piece or six-piece set. All the Slim Technology hand tools feature an ergonomically designed handle to ensure a comfortable grip regardless of how many screws need fastening, while the roll-off protection means it won’t roll away when it is put down. GW&E Wright from Kent, agree: “The grips are the perfect fit for your hand and the Slim Technology insulation will never get damaged or wear out.”
The number one choice among industry professionals nationwide, Wiha’s innovative Slim Technology is truly award winning, being named among Professional Electrician Magazine’s Top Products in 2011 and 2012. It also picked up the prestigious iF Product Design Award in 2011.
