    Clutch Bits

    Turn the butterfly-shaped screws commonly found on old vehicles and machinery. These bits withstand high torque without slipping and damaging the screw recess. Also known as Type G bits.
    Hex Shank—Also known as insert bits, these snap into hand tools. If you want to use them with power tools, attach a bit adapter (not included).
    Quick-Change Hex Shank—Lock these bits directly into power tools. They won't wobble as much as bits paired with an adapter, so they are the best choice for high-precision tasks.
    Steel—Best for dry environments, since moisture will cause these bits to rust.
