Square-Recess Screwdriver · #2 tip x 4 in shaft · Cushioned grip · IDEAL 35-693
What this product is for
This square-recess screwdriver is used for installing and removing #2 Robertson-style screws in electrical devices, boxes, panels, and general fastening work. The 4 in (102 mm) shank gives good reach while maintaining control in tighter working areas.
Use for
Use for receptacles, switches, cover plates, junction boxes, panel trim, and other hardware that accepts a #2 square-recess driver. This tip size is commonly used by electricians for device and enclosure screws.
Avoid for
Avoid using this screwdriver on Phillips, slotted, Torx, or undersized square fasteners where tip mismatch can damage the screw head. It is not an insulated screwdriver for live electrical work.
Best for
Best for electricians, maintenance staff, and contractors who want a dedicated #2 square-recess driver with a cushioned handle for repetitive fastening. A dedicated Robertson driver typically gives better engagement than using a multi-bit tool for the same screw type.
Installed in
Commonly carried in electrician hand-tool kits for residential, commercial, and light industrial service work across Canada.
Why this product exists
This screwdriver is built for square-recess screws where secure tip engagement helps reduce cam-out and improves control. The shorter 4 in (102 mm) shank is a practical choice where full-length drivers can be awkward inside boxes and enclosures.
Compared with similar products
Compared with longer square-recess screwdrivers, this 4 in (102 mm) version is easier to control in compact spaces but offers less reach. Compared with interchangeable-bit drivers, a dedicated fixed-tip driver is typically preferred when consistent fit and torque transfer matter. Actual fit depends on screw condition, recess depth, and manufacturer tolerances.
