Handles are made of wood or plastic. Top-quality wooden handles have a bolster on the screwdriver bar, which helps hold the bar to the handle. The one-piece bars in heavy-duty wooden handles extend through the handle and are headed over on the end with a metal cap. Plastic handles should be made of fire and heat-resistant materials. If properly designed, they give excellent grip. Rubber or vinyl is often used as a non-slip or insulating cover on plastic handles.

Ways to use Dewalt screwdrivers:

Hex tips are used in repair work in the electronics field, particularly in radio and television repair. They are used to tighten socket-set screws and usually come in sets. Some sets are attached to and fold into a metal carrying case. Torx drive system provides six lobular drive surfaces mated from lobes of the driving and driven elements. Drive surfaces have vertical sides that permit the maximum torque application to assure reliable clamping force. All driving torque is transmitted, as a perpendicular force to the driven element so there is no cam-out. Other variations include T-shaped hex tools with vinyl grips and L-shaped keys for greater torque power. Bristol multi-spline tips are the least commons, with six points of contact. They allow torque to be applied evenly with minimum danger of damaging the screw head. Many screwdrivers have magnetized tips, convenient when guiding screws to holes or otherwise inaccessible areas. They also retrieve dropped screws and nuts. Others have split points that can be expanded in width to fill the screw slot and hold screws when guiding into inaccessible areas. A spring clamp that fits over the screw head, holding the bit in the slot, serves a similar purpose.

Conclusion:

The screwdriver should fill the screw slot or head completely or come within 1/16" of doing so. If the tip is too small, the driver will not have enough bite to turn the screw and will slip, stripping the head. If the tip is too large, it will not seat all the way to the bottom of the screw's head and will strip the top portion of the head. Ideally, when you seat the driver in the screw head there shouldn't be any play or slop between the two. At worst, there shouldn't be more than 1/32" of play. It's best to have a full set of sizes so you're not tempted to use the wrong size driver and take the chance of stripping out a screw head.
