File Xcelite Nut driver.jpg thumb A Xcelite nut driver. A nut driver is a tool for tightening nuthardware nuts and screw bolts . It essentially consists of a socket wrench socket attached to a shaft and cylindrical handle and is similar in appearance and use to a screwdriver . They generally have a hollow shaft to accommodate a shank onto which a nut is threaded. They are typically used for lower torque applications than wrenches or socket wrench ratchets and are especially popular in the electronics industry. Variations include T shaped handles for providing the operator with a better grip, ratchet device ratcheting handles, sockets with recessed magnets for holding fasteners , and flex shafts for bending around obstructions. A spinner handle is a shaft and handle with a drive fitting most commonly at the end for attaching interchangeable sockets. This allows one to use a single handle with a number of sizes instead of having a separate nut driver for each size. However, a spinner lacks the benefit of a hollow shaft thus, a common alternative system is a single handle with interchangeable shafts in each size.
