FOREWORD

The American National Standards Committee B107, Socket Wrenches and Drives, under
sponsorship of The American Society of Mechanical Engineers, was reorganized as an
ASME Standards Committee, and its title was changed to Hand Tools and Accessories. In
1996 its scope was expanded to address safety considerations.
The purposes of this Standard are to define general and dimensional data and safety
considerations specifically applicable to cross tip screwdrivers and to specify test methods
to evaluate performance relating to the defined requirements.
This new Standard includes a revision of matenal previously contained in ASME B 107.151993 Fiat Tip and Phillips Screwdrivers. Principal changes in this Standard are the inclusion
of PZ type screwdrivers and safety considerations.
The format of this Standard is in accordance with The ASME Codes and Standards
Writing Guide 2000. Requests for interpretations of the technical requirements of this
Standard should be expressed in writing to the Secretary, B107 Committee, at the address
below.
Suggestions for the improvement of this Standard are welcome. They should be addressed
to The American Society of Mechanical Engineers, Secretary, B107 Standards Committee,
Three Park Avenue, New York, NY 10016-5990.
The requirements of this Standard become effective at the time of publication. This
Standard was approved as an American National Standard on May 13, 2002.

CROSS TIP SCREWDRIVERS


Handle

1 SCOPE

Shank

This Standard covers straight handle-type screwdrivers of PHILLIPS@' and POZIDRIV@' design intended
for manual operation in driving or removing screws
with PHILLIPS@'or POZIDRP'
recesses. The screwdrivers are of the types normally used by cabinetmakers,
carpenters, sheet metai workers, production workers,
mechanics, etc. The intention is to specify performance
rather than design detail.
Inclusion of dimensional data in this Standard is not
intended to imply that all of the products described
herein are stock production sizes. Consumers are requested to consult with manufacturers concerning lists
of stock production sizes.
Using a screwdriver as a pry bar or striking it with
a hammer are clearly misuses of the tool, and nothing
in this Standard shall be interpreted as condoning any
tool misuse. Further information about proper use of
screwdrivers is contained in the Guide to Hand Tools Selection, Safety Tips, Proper Use and Care.

48 HRC (see para. 6.2).

6.3 Tip Torsional Test

The tip of each sample under test shall be placed


in a test block (see Fig. 5) having the corresponding
size of recess of such depth that the wing spread at
the surface shall be as noted in performance section
of Table 1A or 1B. When tested to the minimum tip
torque value specified in Table 1A or lB, neither
the shank nor the tip shall show visible permanent
deformation. The torque shall be applied by forces
acting perpendicular to the axis with the tip held
securely in the test block. It is permissible to support
the blade in a suitable position for test. The blade shall
be restricted from endwise movement during testing.

5.5 Handle
5.5.1 General Requirements. The handle shall
he vf E material capable of withstanding the applicable
test requirements as specified herein. The handle shall
be suitably finished to provide a comfortable grip. The
handle shall be free from rough edges, sharp comers
or tool marks that affect comfort while using the tool.

6.4 Assembly Torsional Test

The test shall be conducted after preheating the entire


tool to a uniform temperature of 125 f 5F (51.7 f
2.8"C). The load shall be applied within 1 min after
removing the tool from the heating medium. The torque
shall be applied by forces acting at or near the middle
of the natural grip of the handle perpendicular to the
axis with the tip held securely in the test block. It is
permissible to support the shank at or near the junction
of the shank and handle in a suitable position for
test. The screwdriver shall be restricted from endwise
movement during testing. When tested to the minimum
assembly torque value specified in Table 1A or IB,
the assembly shall not show a permanent slippage
between the blade and handle.

5.6 Workrnanship

The screwdriver shall be free from conditions which


may impair its serviceability, durability or comfort.

6.5 Tip Toughness Test


6 TEST PROCEDURES

The tip shall be torsionally tested as described in


para. 6.3 except that the torque shall be increased until
failure. if a fracture occurs, the pieces shall be refitted
and the tip shall show that permanent deformation had
occurred prior to fracture. If the tip fails without
exhibiting such deformation, it shall be considered to
have failed the tip toughness test.

Significantly distort (for the purpose of this test)


means an increase of at least 5% in the handle diameter,
either as a uniform or irregular bulge.

normal to the striking surface. in conducting this test,


care shall be taken that the impact energy will not be
expended in flexing of the blade or in dnving the
screwdriver tip into the surface on which it rests. The
blade may be shortened or blunted, if necessary, to
ensure a proper test. An equivalent test may be used
if the required ft-lb (N-m) is satisfied.
The blade shall not penetrate into the handle more
than specified in Table 2 when the weight has been
dropped ten times from the applicable height shown
in Table 2. The first drop ensures that the blade is
seated in the handle. The difference in length after the
first and after the tenth drop is the blade penetration.
The screwdriver handle shall neither break, crack,
nor significantly distort as a result of the above test.
