1,000V Certified Safety. Modular Efficiency. The Ultimate Electrician’s Service Kit.
The Wera 006616 Kraftform Kompakt VDE 18 is the professional standard for safe, efficient electrical work. This 18-piece imperial set is individually tested in a water bath at 10,000 volts to guarantee safe working at the permitted load of 1,000 volts.

For the electrical professional at The Fastener Group, the VDE 18 features the innovative "Take It Easy" Tool Finder system. Each blade is color-coded by profile and laser-engraved with size markings, allowing for instant identification in a crowded panel. Whether you are performing routine maintenance or high-stakes industrial repairs, this kit delivers the German-engineered precision Wera is famous for.
