ATKS51 5-Point Star (Pentalobe) Screwdriver Set Sizes TS8 - TS30 (IPR8 - IPR30)

Quality sufficiently good for the price. Perfect choice for infrequent home use - professionals should not buy tools for $9.99 or less...! Watch your strength, these are tinny and not very strong.

nice tools handy

The sizes of this set are TS8, TS10, TS15, TS20, TS25, TS27, TS30.The seven screwdrivers in this set come with a handy nylon fabric pouch with a see-through vinyl front panel. There is a large grommet opposite the velcro closure suitable for hanging the pouch from a peg.The shaft is 1 1/4" long on the 4 smaller sizes, and 2 3/4" long on the 3 larger sizes. Which is usually plenty for most recessed screws.The 4 smaller screwdrivers have colored rotating tops, in the style of jeweler's screwdrivers. The colors are different so you can tell them apart, except that they re-use some of the same colors in the ATKS50 smaller set so you have to look at the tips and try them to see which one will fit best. The 3 largest screwdrivers have solid handles with 3/4" hex guard next to the shaft.All the screwdrivers in the ATKS51 set are security tips, meaning they have a small hole in the center of the tip to receive a pin in the head of the screw. This probably weakens them a bit but probably not so much that you won't be able to remove the screw.They appear to be nickel or chrome plated which is a bit odd for a professional tool, but common in toy tool sets for kids or women.The tips appear to be cast or stamped. The lobes have rounded outside corners. There is an occasional burr or other defect on the inside corners of the lobes so you may need an extremely small fine file to remove the burr to make the screwdriver usable.Because of the rounded outside corners you should be careful to maintain the shaft perpendicular to the workpiece surface (always directly in line with the screw shaft) while operating the screwdriver or you may damage the screw or the screwdriver tip.The hex guard on the handle of the 3 largest screwdrivers invites you to apply a wrench if you need more leverage but I would be cautious about applying any tool to the handle of these screwdrivers.The grommet on the pouch is opposite the velcro closure flap so you should always securely seal the velcro before hanging the pouch or the screwdrivers will fall out when you hang up the pouch.I needed a T6, so I bought both Silverhill sets, the ATKS50 and the ATKS51.As it turned out the largest ATKS50 was theoretically a T6, but actually turns out to be more like a T5.The smallest ATKS51 is a TS8. So none of them fit. I ended up getting a ZDMAK MK-2429X15 (5 point star bonus set) which I am thrilled with.

Cumplieron con lo prometido y algo más. Pude hacer lo que quería usando estas herramientas. Al tomarlas en la mano se sienten de buena calidad. También me gustó el empaque donde vienen.

It was precisely what I needed to get the job done. It's annoying all the ways companies are making it hard for customers to use their products. Most likely will have to buy additional "tamper proof" drivers as they come up with more stupid screws. Will gladly buy from this brand and supplier again.

quality is expected of the price paid for this toolset. Middle of the road. They are supposed to be for tamper resistant screws however it is a good thing the screws I needed to remove did not have the center post because the holes in the drivers were off center and definitely would not fit properly.

Poor labeling on each driver but otherwise good.
