I work on atv's quite a bit, along with everything else, and the screws on Japanese ones are all JIS head screws. The Vessel brand are all JIS tip screwdrivers, made in japan and high quality. They've become my new favorite brand driver. I've got a set of the Megadora impact screwdrivers, a couple of different size Megadora chissel screwdrivers, the plastic clip removal tool with a Megadora handle and, im getting the Big set of red handle Megadora thru-tang screwdrivers. They work just as well on regular Phillips head screws, too. I really enjoy using the impact screwdrivers on powersports carbs because if it's older, the screws are always stripped out from people using regular phillips tipped drivers to take them apart.
Those Pittsburghs are the WORST. Shaft is too skinny. They’re mushed into those triangular handle at all sorts of ridiculous angles. The WORST screwdrivers I’ve ever used. And so, like you, I went on a mission to find a better set by buying one of several different brands. My favorites, so far, are by Wiha. I REALLY appreciate the power I can get on the handle. They’re the best handle/grip/tip combo I’ve come across. The Vessel tips are amazing!
It's not clear why you chose to stop with a lot of the screwdrivers, the drivers weren't camming out or stripping the screw heads or anything, so I don't really know what this test proves.
That is a valid point. I will do a part 2 with a doubled up 2x4 so the screws can go deeper. I think 3 of them were stopped by the LVP on my film set, so with 2 2x4 to drive the screws into, I think I can get you guys some more accurate results
Didn’t think the vessel screwdrivers would be counted, as they’re JIS not Phillips
Good point, I did forget to mention the Vessel screwdrivers are JIS drive. However they performed exceptionally well on this test so there is a reason to have them included in the test; in case anyone is wondering if JIS can work on a regular #2 Phillips screw, the answer is yes 👍
@@PrestigeWhirlwideknew that, doesn’t work the other way, Phillips wear out the screw heads on bicycle derailleur and Japanese motorbikes
Sorry to sound like an idiot here but what is JIS? And how does that differ from Phillips? I know that “Google is my friend” but it’s late and I’d like to think that you two are also my friends. Now, what’s the deal?!
@@stansbruv3169 JIS is Japanese industrial standard, the screws and screwdrivers have a slightly different head to Phillips screws, use a Phillips on JIS and it chews the head of the screw, Japanese cars, motorbikes have them as fittings obviously, and adjustment screws on shimano bicycle derailleurs are JIS as well.
You can tell JIS screws from Phillips head because the JIS usually have a little dimple on the head.
There’s videos on CZcams showing the difference.
Also DIN 5260-ph/ ISO 8763-1 are the standard most crosshead drivers are made to now, and this is equivalent to JIS and will work on both types of screws
@@Thecrazyvaclav You are amazing bruv. Thank you for the education. I’ll learn more and make you proud!
You forgot klein
Klein is so mid tbh
No Klein tools? :(
I have a Klein multi screwdriver, I plan to do a part two to this screwdriver showdown for a couple reasons, first of which i think some of the screws were stopped by the LVP below the 2x4 so I’ll double up the 2x4 so they can drive in deeper. And the Vessel wood compo screwdriver was accidentally a #1 drive instead of a #2 drive. I will include the Klein in the part two. Coming soon!
