In Depth Features On The Set:
Electricians must face a wide variety of applications with sometimes difficult working conditions. VDE tools used in such environments must not only be rugged and flexible, but must also satisfy the highest demands in terms of quality and safety.
A further commonly occurring problem for VDE fastening tools is limited access to low-lying fastening elements, narrow apertures and standard spring clips.
The VDE safety insulation of screwdrivers often obstructs and prevents optimal access to fastening elements.
The normal solution in practice is to compromise on safety, whether this means the use of non-insulated tools or perhaps even a shortening of the blade insulation
These blades are up to 33% slimmer for maximum access:
With slimTECHNOLOGY by Wiha, the company from Germany presents a completely VDE-tested solution for fastening tools. Ingeniously simple: insulation that often poses a hindrance has been integrated into the through-hardened blades, thus creating maximum access to the fastening elements. In this way the slim blades achieve a reduction of total diameter of 11% to a maximum of 33% in the critical working area according to output size.
This means that the slim blades from Wiha are extremely narrow but are still characterised by a high performance that surpass stipulations for VDE torque several times over, and simply get the job done.
The advantage for electricians: GS and VDE-tested safety with proven Wiha quality for fastening positions that were until now annoyingly inaccessible. The handles of the new VDE slim line are of course based upon the tried-and-proven Wiha handle size concept that has set standards for years in terms of surface feel and ergonomics.
