If at least once in your life you have tried to tighten a self-tapping screw with a simple screwdriver, then surely remember your feelings well - your hands get tired, it takes a lot of time, and far from the most beautiful words come to mind. If you need to twist several dozen or even a hundred of these, then the master will have a very difficult time. An excellent solution would be a screwdriver - a tool that greatly facilitates repair work and simplifies the process of assembling structures. Let's talk about Patriot products.

What are they for?

For drilling and twisting / untwisting, two types of power tools are used - a drill and a screwdriver. Technically, these works can be carried out by both, but there is a rather tangible difference between them.

The drill is used exclusively for drilling holes. It is used for working on loose and hard surfaces such as concrete, stone, wood and even metal.

The screwdriver is equipped with a special mechanism that automatically stops the movement of the self-tapping screw.as soon as it is screwed in to the very hat. This prevents damage to the thread of the hardware, and also protects the surface of the part that is attached, and the chuck. If you use a drill, you have to determine the desired hole depth by eye, so the assembly using a screwdriver looks neater and cleaner.

Thus, if you intend to engage in furniture production, drill holes in brick and concrete walls, and mount metal structures, then you better choose an electric drill. If your plan includes only from time to time to assemble and disassemble furniture, as well as drill soft bases (for example, drywall), then it is quite possible to limit yourself to a screwdriver.

Modern manufacturers produce screwdrivers in several versions. Today, batteries are most often offered with a capacity of 12-18 V. Such products belong to the budget category, which is focused on use in everyday life, but with regard to the quality of fasteners, such screwdrivers show themselves very worthy. In addition, in any store you can find standard network models that work only when connected to an electric current.

There are quite a few manufacturers of screwdrivers. One of the most popular brands is Patriot. Let's dwell on the features of its products.

Features of brand products

Customer reviews indicate the exceptional performance of Patriot screwdrivers. As a rule, products belonging to the entry class have rather limited functionality and do not go beyond the standard impacts. However, the instruments of this brand have become an exception to this rule - here a percussion function is implemented in a low-power device. It should be noted that this manufacturer is almost not engaged in the production of screwdrivers as such.

For the most part, combined instruments are produced under this brand., which, in addition to drilling, also have a number of other functions. That is why, when choosing a particular model, you should carefully familiarize yourself with the technical features of the tool precisely as a screwdriver. Sometimes this feature is only optional. In this case, the screwing efficiency will be low. Consider the most popular models from Patriot.

Model overview

BR 114Li

This is one of the basic modifications that combines all the properties of an ergonomic, compact and at the same time very reliable tool. Its power is low, but nevertheless it works confidently even with the most rusted drills. The product has the function of switching high-speed modes of operation, due to which, if necessary, you can increase the force effect when working with hard bases and make the screw-in process softer when drilling brittle material.

Users note a fairly good package bundle of the model, which necessarily includes a spare battery. This allows you to organize many hours of trouble-free operation even in the absence of an electrical connection.

BR 241 Li-H

This is a screwdriver model with more powerful potential. The torque of 1350 rpm allows you to effectively work even with the most problematic hardware, as well as make centimeter holes in the drilling mode. Professionals recommend this model for domestic use due to the reverse motion option. This means that if an accessory gets stuck accidentally, the tool operator can reverse and remove it. When working with porous materials, this option is very popular. If the main criterion from which you start when choosing a screwdriver is high power ratings, be sure to pay attention to the BR 241 model, which has the most favorable user parameters. The only caveat is that this modification is undesirable to use when working with small drills.

FS 3006

This screwdriver belongs to the network category, and it combines all the best features of the "socket" options. Users of the tool note such positive characteristics as reliability, ease of use, increased power and a wide range of settings. This model is equipped with a flashlight that allows you to work in hard-to-reach places. In order to make it more convenient to hold the screwdriver in your hands, special rubber pads are provided. Also noteworthy are the exceptional safety features - multi-layered dust protection and an efficient cooling system.

The brand mostly produces products that relate to household toolsdesigned for intermittent use at low to medium intensity. Therefore, for professional work, it is worth choosing products from other brands. Of course, Patriot tools are not among the best sellers in the Russian market, since this brand is not known to everyone. Nevertheless, the brand's products deserve attention, since the models of this series have rather advantageous consumer features, representing the optimal combination of power, functionality and safety of structures.

Selection Tips

In conclusion, it is worth giving a few recommendations that will help you choose the ideal tool for home use. The best screwdriver is not necessarily the one advertised by the manufacturers. Among the little-promoted brands, you can often find a unit with high performance, as is clear from the description of the models of the brand in question. If you need anything, just not to screw the elements by hand, pay attention to electric screwdrivers with a voltage of 3.6 V and a torque of up to 10 N * m. If you are planning to make minor cosmetic repairs, give preference to models with a torque of 24-25 N * m and a power of 10-15 volts.

With regular performance of standard manipulations, it is quite possible to get by with a tool that produces 1300-1500 rpm. For professional use, the corresponding figure should be higher. The option of switching speeds will not be superfluous, since there is no need for screwing in drills at high speeds.For home use, it is better to purchase a tool with a keyless chuck. It is much more practical than magnetic and allows you to change the attachments on-line.

A high-quality screwdriver should be equipped with a clutch that protects the self-tapping screw from pinching and breaking the cap in conditions of an emergency stop of the tool. It is better to give preference to battery models that can be used in the country, as well as moved throughout the apartment without reference to the location of the outlet. Keep in mind that the more powerful the electric screwdriver, the heavier it is. If a large amount of work is ahead, then using a powerful tool can quickly lead to muscle fatigue and fatigue, so you need to take into account the physical characteristics of the person who will be working with the equipment. Strive to find the optimal balance between comfort and efficiency.

A high-quality tool, with proper operation and storage, can last for a long time. Subject to all the rules of work, the screwdriver will perform its functions for more than a dozen years.
