Description
Most torque screwdrivers take hex bits, but some jobs call for a small socket instead. The Snap-on QDRIVER2A torque screwdriver has a 1/4-inch square drive for exactly that. In addition, a pin locks the socket onto the drive, so it cannot drop off mid-job.
Why pin retention matters
A loose socket that falls into a control cabinet or onto a circuit board causes real trouble. It can short a board, scratch a finish or vanish into a machine. With the pin in place, the socket stays put until you choose to remove it. So operators can work overhead or inside tight housings with more confidence.
Snap-on launched this pin-retention version to sit alongside its earlier bit-holder drivers. Therefore, you can pick the drive style that matches each job.
Key features of the Snap-on QDRIVER2A torque screwdriver
- Accuracy within ±6% from 20% to 100% of full scale.
- Torques in the clockwise direction only.
- Freewheels 90 degrees once it reaches the set torque.
- Textured, non-slip body with a tri-lobe grip that will not roll off a bench.
- Light yet rugged build and an easy-to-read torque setting.
Typical jobs
Snap-on points to printed circuit boards on assembly lines as a prime use. For example, small standoffs, hex nuts and terminal posts often need a socket rather than a bit. Electronics, telecom and control panel makers in Vietnam handle this kind of work every day.
What about the torque range?
We have not confirmed the exact range of the QDRIVER2A against an official Snap-on page. For that reason, we do not list a number here. Lost in HCM will confirm the range in your quote, so you can check it against your drawing first.
Looking after your driver
Store the driver at a low setting when it is not in use. Also keep it clean and avoid dropping it, because a shock can shift the setting. In addition, check it on a torque tester at regular intervals, and send it for calibration as your quality plan requires.
