The Wera Tools range has got some new innovations this month as the specialist manufacturer launched its new 2025 products.
Safe Torque Speed VDE
One of Wera’s stated aims in recent years is to “Make Torque Easy” and that ambition has extended to the electrical world with the introduction of the new Safe-Torque Speed VDE screwdrivers. The new drivers utilise the same technology as the non-insulated Safe- Torque Speed drivers with super-fast setting of the desired torque value. The “safe’ element is provided by the slip-over mechanism which ensures that the selected torque cannot be exceeded. Five pre-set torque values are quick to set, ensuring easy and safe screwdriving in both clockwise and anti-clockwise operations.
As a special feature, the fixed position (Torque Lock function) allows the Safe-Torque Speed to be used as a conventional screwdriver for high tightening and loosening torques. A particularly popular feature of this tool: the fast-rotating sleeve for easy wielding of the tool whilst screwdriving.
Two versions are available with the values (0.4; 0.8; 1.2; 1.6; 2.0 Nm, as well as 2.4; 2.8; 3.2; 3.6; 4.0 Nm) that cover the most popular applications. The new Torque drivers are also suitable for use with Wera’s existing VDE interchangeable blades, and are available together in a Wera amazing Kraftform Kompakt textile pouch.
410i VDE Ratcheting T-Handle
Not content with one new VDE innovation, Wera is also pleased to launch the new 410i RA Ratcheting T-Handles. Available in both 3/8” and ¼” drives, the handles feature an integrated fine-tooth ratcheting mechanism that live inside the ergonomic Kraftform t- handle. The free-spinning sleeve on the blade allows for fast rotation, while the cut-outs allow the ratcheting mechanism to be used with low resistance.
The new 410i RA Ratcheting T-Handles work with the accompanying 3/8” VDE sockets and accessories from the existing Zyklop VDE Series, or the new ¼” range that was also launched this month.
Ratcheting screwdriver range
The Wera development team has built the ratchet mechanism so small that the tools are no longer bulky and thus won’t fail in tight spaces. The new generation of ratchet screwdrivers have the mechanism integrated directly into the handle, resulting in an ultra-compact tool. With 36 teeth, the tools allow an extremely low return angle of only 10°.
Intuitive ratcheting and spinning of the tool in the screwdriving direction is now possible thanks to the slip-proof direction switch. The ratchet screwdriver can be switched to the right and left and also has a position at 0°. Once set at this position, the tool can be used as a regular screwdriver. This is especially important when you want to work with great precision. The range includes all handle shapes, including Stubby and pistol handles, as well as the sets from the Kraftform Kompakt series.
The 2025 Wera Innovations don’t stop there; there is additions to the Joker wrench range with the the double-ended 6006 ratcheting wrench as well as the extra-long 6007 combination wrench. The famous Tool Check range has now become modular, with the perfect combination up to you, while the Click Torque range now includes new Click-Torque Lock wrenches.
