Practical tips for best results
- Match driver size to the hex head for optimal torque and to avoid slipping or rounding edges.
- Consider washers in high-load furniture or hardware installations to distribute pressure and prevent pull-through.
- For hardwoods, pre-drilling may help prevent splitting while maintaining strong joint integrity.
- Torquing cables or mounting hardware should be performed gradually to avoid over-tightening and material damage.
