#2196 6-Lobe (TX) Driver Bit & Key Gage
The #2196 6-Lobe (TX) Driver Bit & Key Gage is a precision inspection tool designed to verify the dimensional accuracy of 6-lobe driver bits, keys, and screwdriver tooling.
Engineered for driver manufacturing and tooling quality control environments, the 2196 Series confirms that driver geometry meets TXF-805.1 and TXQ-805.1 standards for proper engagement with internal hexalobular fasteners.
This gage verifies:
• Driver tip profile geometry• Lobe conformity• GO acceptance limits• Tool manufacturing compliance
Each gage is heat treated, thermally stabilized, and surface treated to maximize wear resistance and long-term dimensional stability. All sizes are calibrated to specified tolerances and are traceable to NIST standards.
Ideal for:
• Driver bit manufacturers• Screwdriver production facilities• Tooling quality control labs• Automotive and aerospace driver suppliers• ISO-compliant manufacturing systems
The 2196 Series ensures proper driver engagement geometry before tooling is released to production or distribution.
