Klein Tools 601-7-INS – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What tip sizes and shank lengths does the Klein insulated cabinet tip screwdriver come in?
Three combinations: 3/16 inch tip with a 7 inch shank (601-7-INS), 1/4 inch tip with a 4 inch shank (602-4-INS), and 1/4 inch tip with a 7 inch shank (605-7-INS). The 4 inch shank is the one for tight panel work where you cannot back a long driver out of the enclosure; the 7 inch versions reach recessed terminals in deeper gear.
2) Which size should I order for standard breaker and receptacle terminal screws?
For most breaker lugs, device terminals, and panel cover screws, the 1/4 inch cabinet tip is the workhorse. Take the 4 inch shank (602-4-INS) for load centers and panel covers where clearance is tight, and the 7 inch (605-7-INS) when you need to reach past gutter wiring. Drop to the 3/16 inch tip (601-7-INS) for smaller control and instrument terminals where a 1/4 inch blade will not enter the slot.
3) What is a cabinet tip screwdriver and why use it on electrical panels?
A cabinet tip is a slotted tip with parallel sides rather than a flared, tapered blade. The straight sides let the blade drop all the way into a recessed or counterbored screw hole, which is exactly what you get on breaker lugs, terminal blocks, and control cabinet fasteners. A standard keystone slotted tip flares out and bottoms on the rim of the hole.
4) Will this screwdriver hold the screw magnetically when I am working overhead in a panel?
No. The tip is not magnetized, so screws will not stick to it. In an energized panel that is often what you want, since a magnetic tip can pick up loose metal filings, but if you are fishing terminal screws back into a deep cabinet you will need a screw-holding driver or a separate grabber.
5) Is the shank on this Klein insulated driver strong enough for high torque on terminal lugs?
The blade is custom US-made tool steel, induction hardened, on a round shank, and the Cushion-Grip handle is shaped for torque transfer. Induction hardening puts the hardness into the tip where it resists cam-out while the core stays tough enough not to snap. The round shank means there is no wrench flat, so torque comes from the handle only, not from putting a wrench on the blade.
6) Can facility maintenance standardize on this driver for insulated tool requirements?
It meets IEC 60900 and ASTM F1505, which is the language most facility and utility insulated-tool policies are written in, and it is made in the USA, which matters where domestic sourcing is part of the purchasing spec. Insulated tools do need periodic visual inspection for nicks or cuts in the insulation and removal from service if the inner layer shows through.
7) How long is the 1/4 inch 4 inch shank version overall, and will it fit in a pouch?
Overall length on the 1/4 inch, 4 inch shank model is 8.313 inches (21.1 cm) and it weighs 3.2 oz (91 g). That is a normal pouch or tool-bag length, and the 4 inch blade keeps it short enough to work inside a residential load center without the handle fouling the deadfront.
