What does a home wizard do to decide which screwdriver to choose for the house? Of course, he asks friends and acquaintances who already have such a tool. We decided to do this work for you and collected information on the best-selling brands of screwdrivers. We bring to your attention a small rating of screwdriver manufacturers.
Bosch
The leadership behind the tools of this company was fixed for a long time. Traditionally, the equipment for domestic use has a body of green color, professional machines - blue. Among the many models the most popular is the Bosch JSR 12-2 cordless screwdriver. The battery life is 1 hour( without interruption).In this case, the battery lasts longer than in similar tools of other brands, since the charger from Bosch operates in a so-called sparing mode.
With the sudden release of the start button, the spindle with the bit stops instantly( quick brake), which is very important for the assembly of cabinet-type furniture. After stopping, the tool spindle is automatically locked. Single-socket chuck is fixed with a quick-clamping mechanism, so replacing the rigging requires a minimum amount of time and effort.
This model - the best option for small-scale finishing and installation work. It can easily cope not only with screwing screws and self-cutters of medium diameter, but also with the drilling of small holes in wood or metal. Bosch also produces a line of network screwdrivers.
Hitachi
Nobody doubts the perfect quality of the tools of this company. Functionality, practicality, as well as an unusual futuristic design - these are the undeniable arguments by which Hitachi tools have become so popular. One of the best-selling positions was the Hitachi DSS 12 DVF3 screwdriver.
Thanks to the two-speed gearbox, the machine is high-speed and capable of developing a solid torque. Work is provided in conditions of insufficient illumination - on the screwdriver is installed a powerful battery lantern.
The maximum force applied to the tool operating element is controlled by a release coupling, the setting range of which includes 22 positions. This design ensures fastening of the fasteners without tugging.
The developers paid great attention to the ergonomics of the equipment, which makes Hitachi DS 13 DVF3 the favorite of professionals.
Makita
The advantages of the Makita 6281DWPE screwdriver, in particular, an effective fast brake, have long been appreciated by the builders of cabinet furniture. However, the scope of the tool is not limited to this. Powerful engine, gearbox with two speeds, electronic speed control system and reverse function make this screwdriver extremely convenient for any mounting or finishing work. Fixation of the cartridge is carried out by a quick clamp, so the tooling can be replaced literally with one motion.
Users note the good stability of Hitachi screwdrivers to high dirt and dust content, reliability and unpretentiousness in maintenance.
DeWalt
This North American company is an old-timer in the construction tools market. In our country, customers like the model DeWalt DC 727 KA.If you are looking for a serious tool with a super-powerful engine, then this is exactly what you need. From overheating, the motor is protected by a large aluminum radiator. This screwdriver is not threatened with bumps or falls, because the gearbox is closed with a casing of a durable magnesium alloy.
Like many other high-end models, the DeWalt DC 727 KA is equipped with a disconnect coupler. The speed of rotation of the spindle has a smooth adjustment. The presence of these options makes it possible to use this powerful model for screwing small screws and screws.
Skil
If the brands described above are premium-class, then Skil is pretty well placed in an affordable price segment. Relatively low cost is by no means associated with poor quality equipment. Simply, the company made a bet on functional minimalism per customer without any particular complaints.
If you need a screwdriver in your household "just in case" and you are not going to pay a lot of money for a "heaped" machine, then Skil is your best partner.
The Skil 2006 AB has a reverse function, and the torque can be set in one of 16 values. Various modifications can work from the battery or from the * network * cord.
This model is most often used in episodic work on the house. Screws, screws and screws of small diameters, holes of small size in wooden or metal parts - for Skil 2006 AB these tasks will be quite "on the shoulder".
For more serious works we recommend Interskol DA-18 ER.This is a well-balanced unit with a battery that is larger than the capacity described above. The list of functions contains only the most necessary, but the tool is equipped with a fairly powerful motor and can be used as a professional.
Stern
Screwdrivers of this brand belong to the budget class. In addition to a very meager set of functions, they are distinguished by their angular design, which does not fit in any way with the concepts of ergonomics. Nevertheless, because of the low cost, the tools of this brand have become quite popular even among the builders of cabinet furniture.
If you are also involved in furniture production, please note that the Stern screwdriver does not provide a quick spindle brake: after releasing the start button, the cartridge takes one or two turns by inertia. At the same screw or other fasteners sits deeper than necessary, damaging not only the laminated surface, but also the structure of the chipboard( if it has a low density).
