Gedore Driving Handle 1/4″ Bitholder

In this article I will share brief thoughts on the Gedore Driving Handle with 1/4″ bit holder and product number 1649337. Gedore is a high quality German Engineering brand (just like Hazet and Stahlwille), that delivers excellent tools. The Gedore Driving Handle is in the category excellent value for money, and great for your toolbox that supports short cycling trip.

Design Gedore Driving Handle with 1/4″ bit holder

On the product page of the Gedore Driving Handle with 1/4″ bit holder and product number 1649337 there is not much product description to read. So let me try to provide you with some description:

The Gedore Driving Handle is a non-slip 2-component handle in the blue Gedore colors, with a 1/4″ hexagon socket for a 1/4″ bitholder (long or short). The total length of the handle is 95 mm and the weight on my kitchen scales is 42 grams.

The Gedore Driving Handle is compact enough for tight spaces and therefore it will fit every toolbox. The Driving Handle is large enough to transfer enough torque on the bit holder. It is particular versatile because multple lengths of bitholders can be used (from 60 mm up to 130 mm bitholder) in which you can place the specific bit required to do the job.

To summarize it is one of these versatile tools that you simply always have packed in the BERA CLIC+ toolbox.

The BSCTools SDH-1 screwdriver is also compact and small but has the advantage of a storage compartment and a locking pin (that you tighten with a PB Swiss Tools hex key) to keep the 1/4″ bitholder firmly locked.

Concluding thoughts and wrap-up

The price point of Gedore Driving Handle with 1/4″ bit holder and product number 1649337 is around € 6,85 at prof-tools, a solid supplier I’ve used a lot in the past. As said this is an excellent value for money ratio, when you are already on the high quality bits ship.

The only thing you need is a simple 1/4″ bitholder (long or short) and a box of high quality bits, like I’ve shared in the Hazet 2262 Screwdriver with bit holder article where you can see the PB Swiss Tools bit box. But also some unique tool bits can be used BSCTools Shimano Preload Tool Bit for Hollowtech II Cranks with this Gedore Driving Handle.
