Ideal Industries 78-0113 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the IDEAL 78-0113 nut setter fit a standard impact driver or drill chuck?
Yes. The 78-0113 has a 1/4 inch hex body, so it drops into any 1/4 inch hex bit holder on a drill or driver, and it also fits standard multi-bit screwdrivers. The power bit end is cut with a power locking groove, so it seats and holds in bit holders and quick-change chucks that use a detent ball.
2) How long is the IDEAL 78-0113 nut setter, and will it reach into a recess?
Overall length is 2 inches, which is a standard short nut setter. It is long enough for surface work like strut, boxes, and metal studs, but if you need to run a screw down inside a deep recess or standoff, a longer 2-9/16 inch or 6 inch nut setter is the better choice.
3) Can I buy the IDEAL 3/8 inch magnetic nut setter singly, or only in a multi-pack?
Both. The 78-0113 comes as a single carded piece, and as part number 78-0113-10 in a 10-piece clamshell. The 10-pack is the one MRO and electrical crews usually order, since nut setters wear and get lost on the job.
4) Is the IDEAL 78-0113 hardened enough for repeated driving in sheet metal?
The nut setter is custom heat treated for strength and durability, and machined to tight tolerances so the socket seats squarely on the screw head instead of rounding it. That matters on production sheet metal and strut work, where a loose-fitting socket chews heads fast.
5) Does the magnet in the 78-0113 hold the screw, or just the socket?
It is a magnetic nut setter, so a magnet in the socket holds the hex-head screw in place before you drive it. That is the difference between this and a plain hex socket bit: you can start a screw overhead or in a tight box without a second hand on it.
6) I need more than one hex size for a job with mixed screws. Does IDEAL make other sizes?
Yes. The 78-0113 covers 3/8 inch, and the same nut setter line is offered in a range of hex sizes for other screw heads, all on the same 1/4 inch hex body so they interchange in one bit holder. Order the sizes that match the screws on your job rather than relying on 3/8 to cover everything.
