Boddingtons Electrical Insulated Pozi Slotted Screwdriver
Insulated Tools are manufactured according to the International IEC60900 standards for working with live systems up to 1000 V AC & 1500 V DC
Insulated Slot and Pozi screwdrivers are specialized tools designed for working with slotted (flathead) and Pozidriv screws, particularly in environments where electrical safety is a primary concern. These screwdrivers are insulated to protect users from electrical shock, typically rated for up to 1,000 volts, making them essential for electricians, technicians, and other professionals working near live electrical circuits.
Features
- High torque soft grip screwdrivers for Pozidrive screws
- Precision hardened Chrome-Vanadium-Molybdenum steel blade
- Blade insulation directly moulded onto the blade
- Ergonomic, softgrip multi-component handle Tips and dimensiones acc. to DIN 7438, ISO 8764-PZ
Key Features:
Insulation: Both Slot and Pozi screwdrivers have shafts and handles coated with non-conductive materials, such as high-quality rubber or plastic. This insulation prevents electrical current from passing through the tool, protecting the user from potential electric shock.
Slot (Flathead) Tip:
- Slotted Tip: The Slot screwdriver features a flat, straight blade tip designed to fit into the single straight recess of slotted screws. These screws are widely used in a variety of applications, including older electrical installations, woodworking, and machinery.

Pozi (Pozidriv) Tip:
- Pozidriv Tip: The Pozi screwdriver is designed to fit Pozidriv screws, which are similar to Phillips screws but with additional smaller ribs between the main cross recesses. This design provides better torque transfer and reduces cam-out (slipping) compared to standard Phillips screws. Pozidriv screws are common in electrical installations, furniture assembly, and other precision work.

Pozidriv screws are common in electrical installations, furniture assembly, and other precision work.
Ergonomic Handle: Both Slot and Pozi insulated screwdrivers typically feature ergonomic handles that provide a secure, comfortable grip. These handles are often textured to reduce hand fatigue and improve control, particularly important when working in tight spaces or over extended periods.
Durability: These screwdrivers are made from high-strength materials, ensuring that both the tip and the insulation are resistant to wear, chemicals, and extreme temperatures. This durability ensures reliable performance in challenging work environments.
Applications:
- Electrical Work: Ideal for safely installing and repairing electrical components like outlets, switches, and circuit breakers where slotted or Pozidriv screws are used.
- Automotive: Used in vehicle electrical systems and other components that utilize slotted or Pozidriv screws.
- Appliance Repair: Suitable for working on household appliances that require slotted or Pozidriv screws, particularly in areas where electrical exposure is a risk.
- General Maintenance: Useful for a wide range of maintenance tasks in environments where electrical safety is a concern.
Safety Standards:
Insulated Slot and Pozi screwdrivers usually conform to safety standards such as ASTM F1505 or IEC 60900, ensuring they provide reliable protection against electrical hazards.
Types:
- Standard Length: Common for general use in various applications.
- Long-Reach: Designed for accessing screws that are deep or hard to reach.
- Precision: Smaller versions for detailed work, often used in electronics or intricate components.
Combination Sets:
Many insulated screwdriver sets include both Slot and Pozi drivers, providing versatility for professionals who need to work with a variety of screw types while ensuring maximum safety when working around electricity.
These tools are essential for anyone who requires the functionality of slotted or Pozidriv screwdrivers in environments where electrical safety is paramount. They combine precise engineering with robust insulation, making them reliable and safe for a wide range of applications.
