Snap-On Screwdrivers No Part Number

[hurler99]

I have located some Orange/Red handled Snap-On screwdrivers that have no part number on them.

They are marked Snap-On USA, Warning Not A Prybar or Chisel, and either Pat Pend, or Pat DES309246 which is marked on various sizes, leading me to believe it is the handle Pat.

There are a few in the group that have a Part Number (like a Phillips Head No. 2 P/N SDDP42).

What is the story?

Possibly replacement handles.

Possibly replacement handles.

That's how the couple of replacement handles I have look.

+1, I have a green handle with no numbers I bought from Snap-on.

Found this today at an estate to rehash an old thread. Anyone else have pics of theirs? I dont know what this tip would be for except maybe plastic interior panels? Not sharp, and wider than any screwdriver I've seen.

Thats for DZUS fasteners.
The shank is out of a S6180 and someone put it in a stubby screwdriver handle.

With a square shank it looks like a gasket scraper blade to me, but being round on the end I would agree, DZUS

Spot on fellas! Estate sale was from a guy that had hot rods and drag cars, so makes sense having Dzus fasteners

That's actually a pretty useful mod. Snap-on should offer a stubby handle version but with a longer shaft.
I use a similar setup but with a short Vessel ball grip interchangeable handle and coin driver blade.

I could probably give you the part numbers if you give me the measurements. SDDP42 was a #2 Phillips with a 4 inch long blade.

The only Dzus branded stuff I deal with has a hex broach, but I use Dzus screwdrivers on coin slot battery covers. Nothing fits better.

Yes, for Dzus fasteners. Beats using a coin for other things too.
