Bit set Wiha BitBuddy TY 49 mm

The Wiha BitBuddy TY 49 mm bit set combines a compact bit holder with a selection of versatile bits designed for workshop and on-site use. The set includes a magnetic holder that secures bits for one‑handed operation, bits with lasered profile size marks for quick identification, and multitalented TY bits that fit both T‑shaped and Y‑shaped screws. Bits feature a patented torsion zone for use with power tools and impact drivers, fluorescent coating for easy locating under UV light, and an overall design intended to reduce lost bits and extend service life.

Advantages

The strong magnet in the BitBuddy holder lets you position and return bits with one hand. Lasered profile size markings on each bit simplify size selection when removing a bit from the holder. TY bits are universal for T and Y screws and include a torsion zone that increases lifespan—rated by the manufacturer to outlast standard bits by a large factor—and enables safe use in power tools and impact screwdrivers. Fluorescent coating improves visibility in low light and under UV, helping to reduce misplacement.

How to use

Insert the required 49 mm bit into the magnetic BitBuddy holder; the magnet secures the bit for one‑handed positioning in the screw head. Select the bit by reading the lasered profile size on the bit base, then mount the holder or bit into a manual driver or a power/impact screwdriver as needed. When finished, return the bit to the matching slot in the holder for organized storage.

Recommendations

Use the TY bits for both T‑shaped and Y‑shaped screws. When using power or impact drivers, confirm the driver’s speed and torque settings are appropriate for the fastener and material. Store the set in a dry place and inspect bits periodically for wear; replace bits showing significant deformation to avoid damage to screws.
