Rack-A-Tiers 70486YB – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What hex sizes does the Rack-A-Tiers 70486YB magnetic hex driver cover?
The 70486YB carries two hex drive ends on one shank, 5/16 inch on one side and 3/8 inch on the other. Those are the two sizes most self-drilling and hex-head sheet metal screws use, so one tool covers panel screws, strut hardware and duct fasteners without swapping bits.
2) Will a dual-sided hex driver like this chuck into a drill or impact driver?
It is a 6 inch dual-ended driver, not a 1/4 inch hex shank bit, so there is no standard quick-change shank to drop into an impact driver chuck. Both ends are working hex sockets. If you want to run fasteners with a drill or impact, order a single-ended 1/4 inch hex shank C-RHEX driver instead and keep this one for hand work and tight spots.
3) Do the magnetic tips actually hold a hex head screw while you start it?
Both drive ends are magnetic, so a 5/16 or 3/8 hex head sits in the socket and stays there while you reach overhead or into a panel one-handed. That is the practical reason to pick this over a plain hex socket: fewer dropped screws inside a live panel or down a duct run.
4) What jobs is the Rack-A-Tiers 70486YB hex driver actually meant for?
Driving hex-head fasteners: electrical panel and box screws, conduit and bracket hardware, and HVAC ductwork and sheet metal assembly. It is an electrical and sheet metal tool, not a general screwdriver, so it only fits hex heads in those two sizes.
5) How long is the 70486YB hex driver, and will it fit in a tool pouch?
Overall length is 6 inches, short enough for a pouch or belt pocket and short enough to work inside a panel can without the shank bottoming out on the enclosure wall. If you need to reach a screw down a deep stud bay or inside ductwork, you want a longer shank driver instead.
6) Is this hex driver steel, and will it hold up to daily jobsite use?
Construction is steel throughout, with no plastic handle to split. For a property maintenance or MRO kit that gets thrown in a pouch every day, that matters more than the size range.
7) Is there more than one version of this Rack-A-Tiers hex driver to choose from?
One configuration only: model 70486YB, the dual-sided magnetic 5/16 and 3/8 driver in blue/yellow. Nothing to specify on the order beyond the part number.
8) How do I tell this driver apart from the rest of the crew's tools?
The 70486YB is finished blue and yellow, which is the quickest way to spot your own driver in a shared gang box or on the floor of a mechanical room. Model number stamped on the tool is 70486YB if you need to reorder a match.
