Ullman Phillips Screw Starter 147mm Aluminium Magnetic Pickup USA

The Ullman Phillips Screw Starter is a compact, USA-made hand tool designed to hold, position and start Phillips-head screws in awkward or restricted spaces.

Featuring a mechanical screw gripping head, the PD-10 holds compatible screws without relying on magnetism. This makes it suitable for starting both ferrous and non-ferrous screws.

The tool also incorporates a magnetic pickup end for retrieving dropped steel screws and other small ferrous objects, while its textured aluminium body and integrated pocket clip make it convenient to carry.

These are unbranded Ullman Tools clearance items, offered at a reduced price due to possible age-related marks and surface rust.
