Cool! I have Parkinson’s and sometimes the symptoms are pretty annoying...This little accessory is going to make my life a lot better. Thanks for the video!

Come to Canada and learn the beauty of square drive Robertson screws, no gimmicks needed.

I've had one of these in a bit set for a year and never used it. Watched your video, went out and tried it. It works so much better than a bit alone!

WOW!! I have had this bit in my set for a long time and I had no idea how to use it so I never did! You have changed my impact driving experience! Thank you!!

I just bought this yesterday and tried to figure out what it was for. I am just now getting use to the "how to" videos and I thought, "there must be a video for this". So thank you so much, this was a huge help.

Thanks for this product review. For years there seamed to me nothing like the things I used back in the 1980's that could be used with a slot screw. It was pretty impossible to use a power tool on them back then, and even worse if you did not drill out a pilot hold first. This item from DeWalt would also work and even better. The tool back then was a longer screw driver bit then normal, very similar to the ones in this video, but it had a the metal tub around it with a light spring. It was not magnetic, but it surrounded the top of the slotted screw head keeping your power drill centered on the screw and as you got close to the material the spring would allow it to slid up allowing you to finish the screw in the material.

Yup. This definitely solves an ongoing issue. Thanks for sharing.

I'm embarrassed to say I've had one of these for years and had no idea what it's function was. So many times I could have been using this and had no idea. You got a like from me sir, thanks.

I've been having the DeWalt one for over 2 years and still use it, very helpful tool.

I’ve had this bit in my set for a while and didn’t know it’s use until I watched your video. Thanks.

You can actually use the Makita bit holder magnet the same way. Just flip it around with the flat end toward the screw. Then slide it up to interface with the rim of the screw head. That's the way I usually use it. It works much better than with the bullet end out. I have always suspected that an engineer designed it and a marketer decided how to photograph it.

So that’s what it’s for! It came in my new set and I had no idea what it was for! I so needed this all day today LOL. Thanks man!

I just found out about these fairly recently. A freind was using one. It worked slick as a politician! I have used the telescoping sleeve bit holders for years they work great too

Milwaukee sells these with integrated tips, Philips, square, or T25 for about $4 apiece. What I like is that the screw threads don't catch your glove as you're trying to start a screw.

I invented the impact driver and this attachment. I'm so proud of the way you have all embraced my invention.

Great review on a solid product, you missed it’s other purpose which helps it be even better. It also keeps your fastener from sinking too far in your material

I’ve had this thing in my toolbox for years, it came with the bits for my impact and I had no idea how to properly use it wow thanks so much for this video 🙏🏽

I had one of these for years and never knew what it was or how to use it. Thank you my man

I've been using this for 2,3 years now. It makes my job easier. Cheap and reliable.

Thanks for the demo!😊 now I know how it works!(now I know how to use it) very much appreciated👍🏻🥰

Glad I saw this video, in the store I had always seen these little guys but never knew what they did. Total game changer for doing projects around the house!

Cool idea, I’m a Dewalt guy and use this particular bit magnet on the job everyday. I have experienced the magnet falling out but it lasted me approximately 6 months. Definitely a plus to have in any bit kit… highly recommend👍

I have never used this bit, but I can however tell you, I will be buying this bit. For one I am a Dewalt guy already, two and most important part, your video was my selling point. Great work and thank you

This tool came with a screw driver I purchased. Didn't know what it was and found out by accident. Now I love it and It works with every bit I've tried. I wish this existed when I was a kid just learning home improvement. Would have kept me from learning so many variations of profanity. Thanks for the review.

I need this for my Ryobi Impact Driver, Thanks for sharing!

In Canada we have square bits that fit the screws . No need for no crap , your screw just holds to the bit

Just bought a set of Dewalt Impact bits and a very similar looking item came with it, was't 100% sure what it was or how it came apart to load different bits. Now I know. Thanks.

Nice!!! I actually have one of those things just laying in the tool box for years! Never knew what it was and never bothered to look it up! Thanks for the video tip!!!

OMG! I’ve had this little baby for years. Just didn’t know how to use it. I’ll be using from now on. Thanks Brother!!!

MAN! This is kick ass, if I had a nickel for every time I had to come off a ladder. thank you, I buy a case!!!

It’s also helps with no over sinking screws. A con is trying to remove screws that have been over sunk. It will not reach them. A very handy tool. Phillips and flat screws won’t strip as easily either.

Thanks for the review, I extremely need it!

This is a true "Shutup and take my money" product 😂

Thansk for the video...never knew what it was for! Lol

I’m glad you figured it out because I threw away my first one back some time ago lol. Thought it was a piece of garbage but finally saw how it worked.

Had this is my set for years and could not figure it out, figured it was time to consult KZfaq ... thanks for this.

I have this. And for the life of me, I couldn’t figure out its purpose. I was thrown off by the fact that the magnet is on the opposite side. Thank you Thank you Thank you I only have one board to put up of 35 and the last 34 were a nightmare! I feel like starting over.... Not really.

Buying one of these tomorrow

You are a life saver ! Buying this tomorrow morning !

I came here only looking for info on what that thing is. Thank you! Now I cannot wait until my next major project to try it out! The ease it will offer. No more dropping screws and having to climb back down the ladder to retrieve them! I'm psyched!

Another tip about maintaining a fence. I went to the Auto Zone and bought a magnetic tray. That thing attached to my metal wheelbarrow and I just throw nails and screws toward it and they just go into the tray like a baseball going into a catcher's mitt. That is fricking awesome. When I am done maintaining my fence I wheel all of my screws, drills and other paraphernalia to the shed and scoop out all of the bad nails and screws and throw them away without having to pick them up one at a time. Sorry for so many comments. Hope this helps for all you guys that like to screw around.

Good item - so of course Dewalt had discontinued it! lol

I have a Norske bit holder which holds your preferred shortie bit. A great addition to the tool box and looks like this Dewalt bit magnet should be too. Thank you for the demo.

Thank you so much I had this magnetic bit holder for years in my accessories case but and never knew what it was use for, this tool is very useful.

Thanks! Was just scratching my head about the purpose of that thing in my set, lol

A tool you didn't think you needed, but you do!😎

I recently bought a Dewalt 6-in-1 screwdriver that came with this. Never thought to throw it on a drill too! Awesome!

Thanks for the tip! Awesome 👏

Makita still had the best magnetic extension sleeve, It held the whole screw!

I've used this tool before and the only reason I stopped using it was because when I needed to seat the screw head flush with the surface I was screwing it into, I could not see when it was flush because the magnet attachment covered my line of sight to the screw head completely at the point when I needed to know when to stop. Other than that it was nice, but do you see my point? If you are not doing detail work than yes it is a god send.

I have this tool. It works amazing.

Great tip! I have the Makita one and love it. But sometimes I need a little more magnetic power.

I just learned about a tool that I didn't know that I needed (until now).

I use this for drywall and gypsum ceiling! It counter sinks the screw perfectly !

wow . iv learned something new today . going to order mine now online ! thankyou

I love these things. I have even caught a screw I dropped a few times. That made it worth every penny

Just caught this video, stopped in last night and picked up a two pack. Great tip, thanks!

So good to finally know what that does

I work in a factory and we’ve been using these for years, very interesting accessory for sure

Thank you so much for your invaluable information, highly appreciate it, keep it up the outstanding job, have a great day.

They have one that I use quite a bit, it has the magnet on the end but the bits are interchangeable.

You sir, have an exceptional nail biting habit.

Awesome video!!! I’ve always wondered what that was for. Thanks for sharing.

I won one of these a couple years ago, in a random safety meeting drawing at work. I haven't had a clue what it was for, since it didn't even say what it was on the package it came in. It was included in a screwdriver set. Thanks for the vid! Now I can actually use it, instead of letting it sit in a drawer somewhere!

Nice to know I've had one for 6 months just sitting there.

This came with the bit set I bought. Had the thing for years and had no clue what it was until watching this video haha. Thank you.

It's a great essential gadget. The fitment of the bits is excellent as well, which also helps with retention.

It absolutely works great I've had mine for like 6-8 months

I was at Home Depot the other day and noticed that little thing in a set of DeWalt bits and was wondering what it was for. Thanks!

Hey It says it was discontinued :) But in reality, DeWalt has has had it as part of its' kit for a while, just with a different shape (it can be a "extender" or this more compact size). Also, it's great for drywall usage, so it stops when needs to, and doesn't dig too deep into the dry wall :)

As a professional Carpenter I’m not fond of this item it will help many peeps but for me it’s to get me out of a pinch tool not all day use the rest of the time I need to be in control of the screw not the magnet ..hard to explain but a great tool

Thanks. I have never seen this in any other video. Full-watch. Have a fine Thanksgiving.

That is awesome I’m buying me some of these

Great recommendation, and dig your Atown shirt (I used to live in the Ridge next door, and my mom grew up in Atown.

Damn i had this in my Dewalt tough Case Plus. Never used it .NOW I WILL!!Thanks!

I have this on my Dewalt impact driver and love it. I have the Mikita one on Mikita impact and love that one as well thanks.

OMG this is going to make my woodworking so much faster and easier.

I just use a bit holder with the sliding sleeve. You can push harder and it'll stabilize longer screws. I'm not saying these don't work, but personally the sleeves work better

Im gunna buy 1 now thanks for the review

Wow I have this bit and never knew how the hell to use it! Thanks!

Worked very well for me, used it and abused it.....till the magnet broke in half, I wish it would have lasted longer, I will be picking up a new pack. Good video ☺️

I’ve owned one forever and had no idea what it was for lol

i use a earth magnet to hold my screws in place they just improved with this design thank you i will think about it

That's what that's for! Finally! Thanks

lol..... I've had this for years and didn't know how to use it. My dumb @$$ would use it to poorly magnetize the screws. Rub the screw against it for a sec. Thank you!!!!

I just use the magnetic drive guides that have been around for decades. Then even stabilize long screws :-/

Dewalt used to make a bit holder with this built in. Absolutely love it, but no longer available. Bought it at Home Depot a few years ago. I look on ebay every so often with no luck.

Thank you for doing the video any of us could use this one time or another.

I've been buying up these different magnetic bit extenders, and they don't hold screws at all, nor do they hold the bits very well, my bits keep popping off...lol This is super helpful...I will head to home depot and pick up some of these..thanks again, for this tool review. cheers .

i actually got this a few months ago in a set of bits i purchased, I tried it and didnt have it close enough to the screw and figured it was useless and put it away somewhere and now I cant find it lol

Cool Tool, great idea. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you very much for this video 😊

Well damn.... now I know how to use that piece.... XD

I rather like magnetized entire bit then rely on the tip rounded magnet. One disadvantage is that you now have chunky thick bit if you need to get to tighter spaces as you cannot extend or use longer bits. The magnetic bit holder is far superior as it magnetizes entire bit.

Clicked the Dewalt link to Homedepot. They quit carrying the product and suggested something else not even close. Interesting review I thought I would follow up on. Thanks!

I have been waiting for this all my life!

Omg I needed this the other day. I'm up on a ladder trying to run some screws into a board and I had to lean out and hold onto the ladder with one hand and the screws kept falling off my driver.

I got one in a pack didn't know what it was for thanks now I know great tool

Got one of these with my bit kit from Dewalt super helpful

It took me a little bit to be convinced but the idea of getting this tool has just been drilled into my head. What can i say its an attractive bit.
