Description

Wiha 70489 1/4″, 5/16″, 3/8″ Colour-Coded Magnetic Nut Setter Set

High-Visibility Color-Coded Bands. Industrial-Strength Magnetic Fastener Retention. Heavy-Duty Impact-Rated Solid Shaft Core.

The Wiha 70489 Magnetic Nut Setter Set features high-visibility color-coding, industrial-strength magnetic tips, and an impact-rated solid shaft to run SAE hex fasteners quickly without dropping hardware.

The Wiha Tools 3-Piece Color Coded Magnetic Nut Setter Set brings blistering fastening efficiency, heavy-duty impact durability, and reliable one-handed operational freedom directly to your cordless impact driver or drill chuck. Purpose-built to eliminate the frustrating drop of loose hex head screws into deep machine housings, the annoying time wasted sorting through raw steel bits to spot the right size, and the sheared components common under intense impact torque, this premium German-engineered impact-rated driver set establishes a commercial trades standard. It equips professional HVAC technicians, industrial assembly mechanics, residential electricians, and automotive service crews with a high-performance bit set optimized to run self-tapping sheet metal screws, drive heavy hex lag bolts, mount electrical strut brackets, and handle repetitive fastening cycles smoothly.

Uncompromising metallurgical toughness and smart shop tracking elements serve as the foundation for this elite Wiha 70489 Nut Setter Set. Forged from premium-grade Chromium-Molybdenum alloy tool steel (CrMo) and multi-stage heat-treated for maximum torque distribution, the solid impact shafts resist shearing and twisting under heavy cyclical loads. The precision-broached driver sockets feature a beveled rim architecture and radiused corners to grip the flat sides of hardware tightly, reducing destructive cam-out and head rounding. Each 3-inch extended driver houses an industrial-strength rare-earth magnet for dependable fastener hold, while a bright, high-visibility color-coded band and laser-etched markings provide quick, foolproof size identification at a glance.

Why the Wiha® 70489 3-Piece Impact Driver Fleet Controls Your Layout:

  • Industrial-Strength Magnetic Hold: Embedded high-pull rare-earth magnets retain hex screws securely inside the socket for easy one-handed vertical drilling.
  • Foolproof Size Identification Color Bands: Bold, high-visibility color-coding bands let you grab the exact 1/4", 5/16", or 3/8" socket instantly out of a crowded pouch.
  • Heavy-Duty Impact-Rated Core: Precision-engineered solid steel build handles high torque curves from modern Li-ion impact drivers without cracking.
  • Anti-Rounding Radiused Jaws: Broached interior corners apply driving force directly to the flat sides of the fastener head rather than the points to eliminate rounding.
  • Universal 1/4" Hex Quick-Change Shank: Standard 1/4" base snaps rigidly into any quick-release impact chuck or standard drill driver assembly.

Frequently Asked Questions

+ Are these nut setters rated for use with heavy-duty 18V or 20V impact drivers?
Yes, absolutely. Wiha has specifically engineered the 70489 set from high-grade cold-forged Chromium-Molybdenum alloy steel (CrMo). This premium metallurgy yields the specific elastic and mechanical thresholds required to absorb the punishing rotational concussive strikes generated by professional 18V and 20V lithium-ion impact drivers without fracturing or breaking the solid drive shaft.
+ Which exact hex head sizes are included in this color-coded 3-piece set?
This set features the three most common standard fractional (SAE) hex sizes utilized across commercial trades: 1/4 inch, 5/16 inch, and 3/8 inch. Each size features a distinct color band (Red for 1/4", Yellow for 5/16", and Blue for 3/8") paired with permanent laser-engraved sizing text on the side walls to allow for fast, visual confirmation at a distance.
+ Can the internal magnets be cleaned if they attract fine iron shavings or metal debris?
Yes. Because industrial-strength magnets naturally attract fine ferrous drilling dust and steel shavings over time, the socket faces feature a precision-broached smooth wall layout. If debris builds up inside and prevents a hex screw head from sitting deep in the socket, you can easily clear the magnetic face by wrapping a piece of sticky painters tape over a small screwdriver tip or using compressed air to lift away the shavings in seconds.
+ What is the advantage of "radiused corners" inside the nut setter socket openings?
Standard cheap nut setters have sharp, angular interior corners that apply extreme driving force directly onto the weak points of a hex bolt's edges, which rapidly strips or rounds off the hardware head. Wiha uses advanced radiused interior corners that transfer torque to the flat, solid faces of the fastener instead. This eliminates rounding, ensures a far tighter mechanical fit, and significantly extends the life of both the driver socket and your hardware.
