Do these Torx/Allen bits exist??

[Jason280]

I'm looking for a set of Torx and Allen bits to fit a standard 1/4" impact driver. I'm not interested in kits with a 1/4" adapter and a bunch of individual bits, but a set where each bit has its on 1/4" quick attach shank. Here's the other catch, they need to be at least 4" or so inches, and 6" would be perfect.

Do these exist?

Pretty sure they dont, if they do Ive never seen them. You would need a 1/4 hex adapter to 3/8 and could use hex sockets.

Vim, Snap On, Wiha, Apex. And I'm sure a lot of others but that should get you started.

All the germans make them, but not rated for impact

But in general, impact-rated Torx sockets are 3/8 drive because they are desogned for higher torque

The other mainstream option is 1/4 hex drive-power bit

I've had this a few years been used heavily in a 18v driver and has held up well. BUT bits are considered consumable.

I've been using this one from HF for a few years now. No issues.

Well looks like I was wrong, learn something new everyday.

Personally I prefer the adapter unless space is at a premium.

ill second this guy been running the torx bits every day at a bmw dealer for about 6 months i only messed up one used a t25 when i should have used a t30 it got the bit a little funky. i beat on the t20 t30 and 5mm with no issue's plus you get two of each torx bit so u can start with the tamper proof and when you finally kill it go grab a regular. for the 10 bucks you spend the set is well worth it.

Wera! Metric hex impact, and Torx impact sold at Lee Valley Hardware.

I didn't read the length requirements. At least it's a start.

thought i saw some in a milwalkee kit at home depot. it was not a complete torx kit, but im pretty sure it had 15 20 25 and 30. there were a bunch of other bits included as well. filler stuff. #2 phillips. #2 sq. stuff i have a ton of, so i passed. i dont have any long bits. this thread is going to make me spend money.

Mac Tools also has a rebranded set which I bought years ago.

That rebranded kit was made by Irwin and actually pretty damn good. I have had it for 8 years and used with my impact drivers exclusively.

The Wiha and Irwin sets look like what I am after, need to do a little more research. The HF set looks OK, but would rather have a little more reach.

Genius

Can be found for far less than list FWIW

The style that the Genius are don't work well for me. They have a straight shank so they fall out of the driver. I have some Dewalts that are like that because they are super long but I regret every time I use them.

Had the same problem a simple cure was running the bits through one of these

I am really confused. Those sets posted are just standard bits. You can get them anywhere? Any bit longer than 1" has the recess really, the most common being the 2".
