Why Choose SPT JIC Blades?

Professional Technician Feedback: “ These bits are a winner... they are not showing wear nor breaking. The 2.0 size fits most screws perfectly."

• Superior Torque: Unlike Phillips drivers, these seat deeply into the head, allowing for more torque without damage.
• Long-Term Durability: Field-tested by technicians for years with no signs of failure.
• Professional Grade: These are not "cheap" alternatives; they are specialized tools manufactured for SPT.

Professional Technician Feedback

"I've been a long-time user of Canon crosspoint bits. The last several years they have tended to set on top of the screw and not down in the head the way they should. This has resulted in many stripped screw heads and much frustration.

I tried numerous brands with similar results. Somehow I overlooked the ones that our own SPT sells. Chuck persuaded me to give them a try.

I ordered the 1.7mm and 2.0mm sizes. The 2.0 size fits most screws perfectly. The 1.7 fits the small screws that Nikon uses on the L series focusing lens. I've only got a couple weeks use on them, but they seem to be the correct hardness, i.e. they are not showing wear nor breaking. These SPT bits are a winner."

"Just a follow up on my screwdriver experience. Eric & I are still using the original bits we purchased from SPT with no signs of failure. I don't remember how long this has been, but  you have the record."
