Klein Tools 86601 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Klein 86601 5/16-inch magnetic hex driver fit my impact driver or drill chuck?
It has a 1/4-inch hex shank with a quick release groove, so it drops into any standard 1/4-inch hex quick-change holder, impact driver, or a drill chuck that accepts hex bits. The groove is what lets a quick-release collet lock and eject it one-handed.
2) How long is the Klein 5/16-inch magnetic hex driver, and will it reach into a recessed box or channel?
Overall length is 1.75 inches (4.5 cm), so it is a stubby bit, not an extended-reach nutsetter. In a quick-change holder it works fine on open sheet metal and strut, but for screws down in a deep channel or recessed box you want a longer nutsetter or an extension holder.
3) Does the Klein 86601 hex driver actually hold the screw on its own, or do I still need to start it by hand?
It uses rare-earth magnets for holding, which is strong enough to hold a 5/16-inch hex head sheet metal screw on the bit while you position it overhead or one-handed. That is the practical difference from a plain non-magnetic nutsetter.
4) What screws is the Klein 5/16-inch magnetic hex driver meant for?
It is sized for 5/16-inch hex head screws, the common head on self-drilling and self-tapping sheet metal screws used for duct, strut, metal stud track, and panel work. For 1/4-inch hex head screws you need a 1/4-inch nutsetter instead, not this one.
5) Can I buy the Klein 86601 magnetic hex drivers in bulk for a crew?
Two pack sizes are offered: a 3-pack under part number 86601 and a 10-pack under 8660110. Shops outfitting several installers or stocking a job trailer usually go to the 10-pack, since these are consumable bits.
6) Is the Klein 86601 a single driver or does one order include more than one?
Each 86601 order is a 3-pack of 5/16-inch magnetic hex drivers, not a single bit. If you need a larger quantity, the same driver is packed ten to a box as 8660110.
