Abstract: A tool bit for driving a fastener includes a shank including a tool coupling portion configured to be coupled to a tool, a head portion configured to engage the fastener, and a nickel coating on the head portion. The head portion is composed of powdered metal (PM) steel having carbide particles distributed uniformly throughout the head portion.

Abstract: An angled adapter for coupling a tool bit to a tool includes a housing and a transmission assembly positioned in the housing. The transmission assembly is configured to convert an input torque about a first axis from the tool to an output torque about a second axis acting on the tool bit. The second axis is disposed at an angle relative to the first axis. The angled adapter also includes a shank supported by the housing and including a tool coupling portion configured to couple to the tool. The tool coupling portion has an outer dimension. The shank also includes a transmission coupling portion coupled to the transmission assembly, and an intermediate portion extending between the tool coupling portion and the transmission coupling portion. The intermediate portion has a diameter that is less than the outer dimension.

Abstract: A tool bit for driving a fastener includes a shank having a tool coupling portion configured to be coupled to a tool. The tool coupling portion has a hexagonal cross-sectional shape. The shank also has a head portion configured to engage the fastener. The head portion is composed of powdered metal (PM) steel having carbide particles distributed uniformly throughout the head portion.

Abstract: An accessory driver tool connectable to a power tool includes a main body and a sleeve. The main body includes a first end, a second end, a tool coupling mechanism at the first end, and a first fastener driving member disposed at the second end. The sleeve, disposed concentrically about the main body, includes a second fastener driving member disposed adjacent the second end of the main body. The sleeve is axially displaceable along the main body between a retracted position, in which the first fastener driving member is exposed to engage a first fastener, and an extended position, in which the second fastener driving member is exposed to engage a second fastener. The sleeve is rotatable relative to the main body while in the extended position.

Abstract: A drill bit includes a shank and a body portion defining a plurality of axially stacked, progressively sized steps. The steps include a first step and a terminal step. The first step defines two tip flutes each disposed at a tip flute angle. The body portion defines a body flute extending through the steps. The drill bit also includes an indicator band formed on a portion of the body flute and a portion of an outer surface of one of the plurality of steps.
