The requirements for ESD-safe screwdrivers are specified in the European standard DIN EN 61340-5-1. This standard also includes a handle that has to be out of a defined conductive material. The Wera products in the ESD series satisfy these standards and the even more stringent requirements demanded by some technology companies.

Wera ESD Tools
High protection
The electric surface resistance of the Wera ESD material is ≤ 109 ohm. This securely protects components against electrostatic energy and associated damage.
Kraftform
The basic idea for the prototype of the Kraftform handle – that the hand should dictate the design – has, right through to today, proved to be correct. In cooperation with the internationally recognised Fraunhofer IAO Institute, Wera developed a screwdriver handle designed to match the shape of the human hand as long ago as the 1960s. After a long development phase, the Wera Kraftform handle was launched to the market in 1968. It has been optimised through the years with new technologies, but has kept its proven shape. After all, the human hand has not changed either.
Prevents hand injuries
The outstanding design of the Kraftform handle that fits perfectly into the hand prevents hand injuries such as blisters and calluses.
Rapid-in and self-lock
The bit can be pushed into the adaptor without moving the sleeve. The lock is activated automatically as soon as the bit is applied to the screw. Bits are held securely and wobble-free.
Rapid-out
Simply push the sleeve forward to change the bit. The spring mechanism lifts the bit off the magnet and unlocks the tool. The bit can be easily removed. The rapid-out function makes it easy to remove even the smallest bits without extra tools.

Product description
High quality ESD bit holder for ESD-safe working. The electrical surface resistance of the Wera ESD material is at 106 - 109 Ohm. This dependably protects components against electrostatic energy and associated damage. The Rapidaptor quick-release chuck enables rapid bit change without needing any special tools. Kraftform Plus handle for pleasant, ergonomic working that makes blisters and calluses a thing of the past. Hard gripping zones for high working speeds whereas soft zones ensure high torque transfer. Suitable for bits with ¼" hexagon head drive as per DIN ISO 1173-C 6.3 and E 6.3 (ISO 1173).
Applications:
ESD
