Klein Tools K36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Klein K36 screw holding screwdriver let me start a screw one-handed in a tight box or panel?
That's exactly what the K36 is built for. The blade is split, so it wedges into the screw slot and grips the screw while you feed it into an awkward spot. Blade thickness runs .043-Inch (1 mm) and expands to .085-Inch (2 mm) as it spreads in the slot. One hand starts and drives the screw, no second hand holding the fastener, no magnet needed (the K36 is not magnetic).
2) What size slotted screws does the Klein K36 fit?
The K36 has a 1/4" (6.4 mm) screw holding tip and is made to start and drive 1/4-Inch slotted screws. Below that size the split blade has nothing to wedge against, so a standard slotted cabinet-tip driver is the better call for small terminal screws.
3) Can I use a Klein K36 screwdriver on live electrical work?
No. The K36 is not insulated and will not protect against electrical shock. De-energize the circuit before using it. If you need to work on or near energized conductors you want a 1000V insulated screwdriver instead, not this one.
4) Can I torque screws down tight with a screw holding screwdriver?
No, and this is the mistake that breaks them. A split-blade screw holding driver like the K36 is a starter, not a tightener. Klein states it is not designed for torquing or tightening, and not to be used to pry or chisel. Start and seat the screw with the K36, then switch to a solid-blade slotted driver to snug it down.
5) How deep can the Klein K36 reach into a recessed opening?
Shank length is 6" (15.2 cm) with a round shank, and overall length with the handle is 9.75" (24.8 cm). That 6 inch reach is what gets the tip down into a deep device box, a panel gutter, or behind a mounted fixture where you cannot get fingers on the screw.
6) What model number do I order for the Klein 6-inch slotted screw holding screwdriver?
Klein Tools K36 is the part number, and it is the only configuration of this driver: 6 inch shank, 1/4 inch slotted screw holding tip, red plastic handle. There is no handing, no finish choice, and no size variant to specify.
7) Should I buy a screw holding screwdriver or just a magnetic tip driver?
Depends on the fastener. A magnetic driver only holds a ferrous screw, and it lets go the moment the screw catches an edge on the way in. The K36's split blade physically wedges in the slot, so it holds brass, stainless, and plated screws too, and it holds them at an angle. The K36 itself is not magnetic. The tradeoff: it starts screws but is not for tightening them, so a magnetic driver still earns a spot in the pouch for driving home.
8) Is the Klein K36 screwdriver made in the USA?
Yes, the K36 slotted screw holding screwdriver is made in the USA. Handle is red plastic, blade and shank are steel, and the whole tool weighs 2.4 oz (68 g), so it rides in a pouch without adding anything you notice.
