TOOLS / SUPPLIES
WOS Intros Ergonomic EZ Grip Driver
Product: EZ Grip Driver
Top Line: Western Optical Supply (WOS) has added the EZ Grip Driver, an ergonomically designed screwdriver, to its extensive catalog of optical tools.
Close Up:
• Finger Rest: Ergonomically contoured scoop cradles the thumb and opposing pointer finger for a comfortable grip. The tool is particularly helpful for people with arthritis, large fingers, small fingers, sensitive fingers or a weak grip, according to WOS.
• Cap: Large rotating round cap dissipates pressure over a large area in your palm. More comfortable than a small cap’s pressure point or a cap with multiple sharp straight edges.
• Peephole: An opening in the shaft lets you see the blade configuration that is normally hidden from view. Convenient time saver.
• Colored Handles: Makes it easy to color coordinate a handle to a blade to save you time searching for the right driver. Alternatively, with a selection of six different colors, you can keep track of which drivers belong in which dispensing station.
• Super-Duper Torque: The ultra-comfortable grip allows you to generate a tremendous amount of twisting action to break stuck screws free or drive screws securely into the hinge.
Vital Stats: Special nylon based handle material is as durable as aluminum. Handle made in U.S. Blades made in Germany. Patent pending.
