• Are Wera VDE tools safe for electrical work?

  Yes, Wera VDE tools are individually tested in a water bath at 10,000 volts in accordance with IEC 60900. This ensures safe working with loads up to 1,000 volts.

• What is the "Take it easy" tool finder system?

  The "Take it easy" tool finder is a colour-coding system on Wera tools (such as L-keys and sockets) that allows users to quickly identify the correct tool size and profile.

• How do I set the torque on a Wera Safe-Torque screwdriver?

  Wera Safe-Torque screwdrivers feature a simple setting mechanism. Once the set torque value is reached, the tool has a slide-over mechanism that prevents overtightening, accompanied by a distinct audible signal.

• Do Wera stainless steel tools prevent rust?

  Yes, Wera stainless steel tools are vacuum ice-hardened to provide the necessary hardness for industrial use while preventing extraneous rust that can occur when using conventional steel tools on stainless screws.
