Featuring a low-profile 1.5-inch stubby handle, a dual-direction ratchet mechanism, and a magnetized bit socket, it excels in tight, hard-to-reach spaces. Compatible with all standard 1/4" hex bits and built with anodized aluminum and carbon steel, this tool combines durability with innovative design to meet the demands of professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike.

## Description

An innovative palm ratcheting screwdriver, specially designed to get into those tricky locations where other screwdrivers won't fit. The ratchet mechanism works in a clockwise direction on one side of the driver handle & in anticlockwise direction when fitted into the other side of the handle.

Review: Excellent bit driver, really handy tool - Short version, buy it. It's a well made tool, functions exactly as designed. Learned a few important things from this purchase. ENGINEER® is the brand name for tools (mostly) sold by the Japanese company Engineer Inc. DR--54 as indicated, is the model number. No English, almost no French, not packaged with export in mind. Alloy (aluminum? Light, non-magnetic) body measures just under 1.5" diameter, just over 9/16" thick, red finish is nice and evenly distributed. Center drive is steel, holds any 1/4" bit on EITHER side, 25/32" long . Ratchet mechanism works in a single direction, you relocate the BIT to reverse. The printed arrow on the labeled side indicates drive direction. Magnets on each side hold the bit in place. There are approx. 45 teeth in one revolution, so pretty fine "swing". Comes with a single bit, marked PH 2, presumably a Phillips #2, an important distinction from the deceptive JIS fasteners. Overall quality is really nice. I will absolutely come back if and when this tool fails to update this review. At time of purchase, value's Japan was the least expensive seller, and delivered quickly.
Review: Nice. - Handy tool when you don't have the room.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent bit driver, really handy tool

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice.
*by K***. on November 8, 2025*

Handy tool when you don't have the room.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well made, but can ratchet can use some refinement.
*by A***E on June 22, 2025*

It is very well made and quality is quite high. The magnet is fairly strong so you don't have to worry about your bits falling out. I picked this because I wanted a finger/palm driver that was low profile that was a direct 1/4in hex drive without any adapters. Where this product falls short is the refinement of the ratcheting mechanism. It works well, but the unit I have has a lot of back drag. This can give you trouble if you can't hold the fastener while you tighten or loosen it. Although I suppose if the fastener is that loose you can in theory drive it with your finger tips and then finish it off with this, but that seems very tedious and somewhat defeats the purpose of this tool. Unfortunately it's all press fit together so trying to open it might be destructive. You might be able to seep in some lube through the seams. So reducing back drag and possibly adding more teeth would make this a 5-star product
