The iFixit Precision Bit Driver is an aluminum or plastic handle that fits 4 mm bits. Found in the Manta, Mako, Moray, Mahi, Minnow, Essential Electronics, Pro Tech and Pro Tech Go Toolkits from iFixit.

Larger driver in the MANTA toolkit... are bitssupposed to be magnetic?

A few months back I purchased the Manta toolkit. I had already owned a Pro Tech Toolkit. I have done several PC builds in this time, and have noticed that the driver with the Pro kit, along with the smaller driver in the Manta kit, both exhibit some magnetism through the bit, preventing screws from falling off the bit.

Unfortunately, the larger driver in the Manta kit does not exhibit the same magnetism. For example, a fan screw. I do not need to hold it onto the bit with a finger when using the smaller drivers, but the larger driver, I am required to since there is no magnetism/pull through the bit. Is this intended?

My larger driver broke, the blue cap fell out. The bearing appears to be threaded in, removing the snap ring (which would be impossible to reinstall anyways if the bearing and cap were re-mated) does nothing. There doesn't seem to be any way to part the handle components to reinstall the cap screw through the bearing without destroying the driver. Some help would be awesome. I have used the larger driver twice. I have used the precision driver many dozens of times without issue. Seems like a QC problem.

YES, both drivers are suppsoed to be magnetic. if its not shoot ifixit an email. they will remedy this. if you didnt buy from i fix it, they will ask for your reciept. if you bought from ifixit it should be linked in your account, microcenter has reciepts stored online too. same with amazon.

also @Travous Quibell. shoot i fix it an email about the cap falling off. i had that happen with the small driver i fix it immediately sent me out a replacement, once i sent them the reciept (i bought the kit from micro center)

I do not know if it is intended or not, but if you want it to be magnetic you can put a magnet on the bit and have it stuck to the bit when you need the bit to be magnetic. So if you take the magnetic bit from the toolkit, you can then put it on the non-magnetic bit and it will make the non-magnetic bit magnetic.

Hope this helped, even though I didn't answer the question.

yes the metal handles are indeed supposed to be magnetic. the handles have a lifetime warranty so feel free and use that. not sure about the plastic ones ifixit sells in the cheaper sets.

if you have a magnet that can fit into the shaft you can fix it yourself. glue it in with a bit of e6000 dont use too much or youll glue your bit in place. leave it assembled for a day for the glue to set.
