Description
The Narex S Line SLIM insulated screwdriver set is a 6-piece set designed for safe work in electrical environments. The main feature of the set is SLIM technology: the diameter of the insulation on the tip section of the screwdrivers has been reduced, which gives access to deeply recessed spring and screw elements without the insulation getting in the way. This applies to screwdrivers with a blade diameter of 3.5 mm or more. The set offers a comprehensive selection of the most common screw heads for electrical installations.
The screwdriver blades are made of treated high-alloy steel and have a blackened finish to improve corrosion resistance. The blades are protected by an integrated insulating coating. The ergonomic handles have a round cross-section, and their material structure consists of a hard PP core and a soft TPE coating, which ensures a secure grip and power transfer. The handle is designed to stop the tool rolling off surfaces.
Safety is ensured by strict testing. These screwdrivers meet the requirements of standard EN 60900:2004 (IEC 60900:2004) and are approved by a state testing laboratory. Every insulated tool is tested for electrical breakdown in a water bath at 10,000 V. This guarantees safe use on live installations up to 1,000 V. The set also includes a voltage tester.
Intended use:
- Electrical installation and maintenance: Suitable for safe work on live installations in electrical trades. The screwdrivers are certified for use at voltages of up to 1000 V AC / 1500 V DC, which covers standard electrical installation work in buildings and industry. The set allows live components such as switches, sockets and protective devices to be installed and adjusted.
- Working in tight spots: The thinner SLIM insulation is designed especially for handling deeply recessed screws and spring terminals. This is essential in modern distribution boards, terminal blocks and other components where screw channels are narrow and an uninsulated tool would cause a risk of short circuit. The SLIM profile ensures access to the screw head without the tip insulation catching on the edges of the installation openings.

Narex insulated screwdriver set S Line SLIM instructions for use:
Before use, make sure the screwdriver’s insulation is intact. Do not use the tool if the insulation shows cracks, wear or other damage, as this reduces electrical safety. Always choose the tip type and size (slotted or PH) that fits the screw head to avoid damage. When using SLIM screwdrivers, make use of the thinner tip in deep connections, but avoid applying unnecessarily high torque with the smallest sizes. Use the voltage tester only within its stated voltage range (150–250 V) to confirm that there is no voltage before starting the actual work. Keep the tools clean and dry. Clean the handles when needed with a mild cleaning agent and a cloth.
Warnings:
Work on live parts is permitted only for persons with appropriate training. Always use suitable personal protective equipment. Never exceed the tool’s specified maximum voltage of 1000 V. If the insulating layer of the screwdriver is damaged, the tool must be taken out of use immediately because of the risk of electric shock. The voltage tester must not be used for any purpose other than detecting the presence of voltage, and it must not be exposed to moisture. Do not use the screwdrivers as levers, chisels or for any other purpose they were not designed for. Keep tools out of the reach of children.
Frequently asked questions (FAQ):
Can these screwdrivers be used safely at 1000 V?
Yes, every screwdriver in the set is individually tested at 10,000 V in a water bath according to standard EN 60900, which guarantees safe use on live installations of up to 1,000 V.
What does SLIM mean in this insulated screwdriver set?
SLIM means that the insulation on the screwdriver tip has been made thinner. This lets the screwdriver reach deeply recessed screws or spring terminals that a screwdriver with conventional thick insulation would not fit into.
Does the set include a voltage tester?
Yes, in addition to the five screwdrivers, the 6-piece set also includes one voltage tester that works in the 150–250 V range.
Recycling instructions:
Packaging materials such as cardboard and plastic should be sorted according to local recycling instructions. The screwdrivers themselves consist of metal and plastic. They can be disposed of as metal waste if the plastic parts have been removed, or taken to a suitable recycling point that accepts mixed or construction waste because of the plastic handles. The voltage tester contains electrical components and must be recycled as waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE collection).
