Malco Reversible Nut Driver 2 5\8" Long 5/16 & 3/8

Overview

The Malco Reversible Nut Driver (MSHLC1) is designed for hardware installation and fastening applications requiring quick transitions between two hex driver sizes on the job site.

Technical Features

• Dual-sided reversible hex socket: A single driver accommodates both 5/16" and 3/8" hex sizes, eliminating the need to carry or swap between two separate drivers.
• 5/16" magnet-tipped, ball locking hex shaft: The reversible hex socket fits over this shaft and locks securely in position, maintaining single-piece driver torque performance during use.
• Tested torque equal to one-piece drivers: The reversible chuck design has been torque-tested to match the performance of standard single-piece hex drivers, ensuring no loss of driving force.
• Slim profile on the 5/16" side: The reduced-diameter profile on the 5/16" end allows access to confined or tight installation areas where standard-profile drivers may not fit.
• "Easy Clean Magnet" design: Metal shavings can be cleared from the magnetic hex tip by a single swipe with a glove or shop towel, reducing buildup and maintaining magnetic holding performance.
• Indestructible magnet: Per manufacturer specification, the integrated magnet is rated for long-term, heavy-use durability in professional trade environments.

Applications

• HVAC installation and sheet metal fastening requiring rapid hex size changes between 5/16" and 3/8" fasteners.
• General construction and mechanical trade work where both hex sizes are used within a single task or workflow.
• Tight-clearance fastening applications benefiting from the slim 5/16" profile side.
• High-volume fastening tasks where the 36-count pack supports crew-level deployment or stocking of job-site tool kits.
