Ideal Industries 35-988 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which bits come with the Ideal 35-988 Ratch-a-Nut screwdriver?
Seven bits ship with the 9-in-1 Ratch-a-Nut: 1/4 in. slotted, 3/16 in. slotted, #1 Phillips, #2 Phillips, and 1/4 in., 5/16 in. and 7/16 in. nutdrivers. That covers panel screws, device screws and the 1/4 and 5/16 hex heads on most breaker and enclosure hardware, so an electrician working a panel doesn't need to carry separate nutdrivers.
2) What does the wire connector wrench on the Ratch-a-Nut actually do?
It's a patented socket in the tool that grips wire connectors so you drive them with the handle instead of twisting with your fingers. Ideal states it accepts a wide variety of connectors and cuts finger fatigue on repetitive wire nut work. If you're making hundreds of splices in a day on a commercial rough-in, that's the reason to pick this over a plain multi-bit driver.
3) What is the Ideal part number for the 9-in-1 Ratch-a-Nut screwdriver?
Order it as Ideal Industries 35-988. That is the single model for this 9-in-1 Ratch-a-Nut driver, so there are no finish, size or handle options to specify.
4) Does the 35-988 include a #3 Phillips or a square-drive Robertson bit?
No. The bit set stops at #2 Phillips and includes no square drive: it's 1/4 in. and 3/16 in. slotted, #1 and #2 Phillips, plus 1/4, 5/16 and 7/16 in. nutdrivers. If your work is Robertson-fastened panels or larger #3 screws, you'll need a separate driver or a Twist-a-Nut replacement bit for that tip.
5) Can I replace worn bits in the Ratch-a-Nut screwdriver?
Yes. The Ratch-a-Nut accepts Ideal Twist-a-Nut replacement bits, so a rounded Phillips or chewed slotted tip doesn't retire the tool. Worth knowing for an MRO crib stocking one driver per tech.
6) Will the grip hold up around oil and solvents in an industrial plant?
The textured grip is built to stay slip-free when it contacts perspiration, gas, oil and chemicals, and Ideal describes the construction as impervious to those common contaminants. That's the reason it holds up in plant maintenance and mechanical rooms rather than just clean residential work.
