Insulated Phillips Screwdriver #2

The Westward 1YXK6 is an insulated Phillips screwdriver with a #2 tip and an overall length of 8 1/2 inches. It features a cushion handle made from SVCM steel with dis-magnetic properties. The shank coating provides insulation and the tip finish is black oxide for corrosion resistance. This hand tool is designed for general fastening tasks requiring an insulated driver.

Electricians and technicians needing insulated tools

This screwdriver suits professionals who require an insulated driver for electrical work where insulation is specified. The #2 Phillips tip handles common fastener sizes found in panels and enclosures. Buyers who need a magnetic tip for holding screws or an ESD-safe rated tool should look at something else. The non-sparking rating is also absent, so environments requiring that certification are not a fit.

#2 tip capacity and insulation headroom

The #2 tip comfortably handles standard Phillips fasteners used in electrical boxes, terminal blocks and similar hardware. Insulation on the shank provides a barrier for live-circuit work up to the tool's rated voltage. The driver runs out when facing oversized or damaged screw heads that exceed the #2 profile, or when a magnetic or ESD-safe function is required for component handling. The 65 warning applies to chemical content under California Proposition 65.

Questions about this item

What Phillips size screw does the #2 tip on this Westward 1YXK6 engage?

The #2 tip fits standard Phillips #2 fasteners commonly used in electrical panels and appliance terminals.

Will the insulated shank on this 1YXK6 protect me when I am working near live circuits in older panels?

Yes, the shank coating is insulated and the tool is corrosion resistant for safer use around energised parts.

How can I confirm the black-oxide finish on the tip is still intact after the first few jobs?

Inspect the tip under good light; a uniform dark surface with no shiny wear marks shows the finish is holding.
