Flexible Shaft Screwdriver Bit Extension for Tight Spots
A bendable 290mm shaft gets the bit onto the screw you could not reach. Bend it around the rail or panel, seat the bit from the storage bar, and drive it home in one pass. Ten bits cover the slotted, Phillips, Torx and hex fasteners in most furniture and appliances.

A bendable 290mm shaft gets the bit onto the screw you could not reach. Bend it around the rail or panel, seat the bit from the storage bar, and drive it home in one pass. Ten bits cover the slotted, Phillips, Torx and hex fasteners in most furniture and appliances.
Reach tight and awkward fasteners with a bendable drill extension
- screws in hard-to-reach spots
- awkward angles around obstacles
- switching between many bit types
- losing small bits
Reach the screw you can't see with a bendable drill extension
Tight spots and awkward angles stop most DIY jobs cold. This 290mm flexible shaft bends around obstacles and holds its shape, so the bit reaches where your hand cannot.
A bendable shaft that holds its angle under load
- Bends around the obstacle
The segmented shaft bends by hand and keeps the shape you set. The bit reaches fasteners behind panels and under rails without a straight line of sight. Set the angle once, then drive.
- Ten bits, one kit
Slotted 3, 4, 5 and 6, Phillips PH1 and PH2, Torx T15 and T20, and hex H4 and H5 cover the fasteners used in furniture, appliances and electronics. Every size is printed on the bar, so the right bit is easy to find.
- Standard 1/4 inch drive
The hex shank drive end fits standard 1/4 inch drill chucks and drivers. The polished steel ends seat cleanly and stay accurate through repeated use.

Bend it once, then drive it straight
- 1Seat the bit
Pick the matching bit from the holder bar and push it fully into the hex end of the shaft until it clicks in place.
- 2Bend by hand
Bend the shaft around the obstacle before you start the drill. Use gentle, moderate curves and check that the bit line reaches the head.
- 3Set the drill low
Turn the drill to low speed and hold light, steady pressure. Let the bit sit square in the screw head before you increase torque.
- 4Drive and check
Turn the screw until it is snug. Pull the shaft back out, then return the bit to its slot on the bar so nothing gets lost.

The fastener that stops the job

The screw you cannot reach
A cam lock sits behind a panel. A drawer rail blocks the straight line to the head. You can feel the screw, you just cannot get a bit onto it. Most people start forcing the driver at a bad angle, and that is how heads get stripped and trim gets cracked.

Why straight bits fail
A straight extension only works when the line is clear. Angled access means the bit walks out of the head, the screw slips, and a 10-minute fix becomes a teardown. Loose bits make it worse, because the size you need is always at the bottom of the toolbox.

Bend it, drive it, done
Bend the shaft by hand around the obstacle. It keeps that shape, so you can line up the bit before the drill starts. Drive at low speed, and the screw comes out on the first try with the bit already in your hand.
What to expect as you use it
- First useBend and set the shaft
Flex the shaft around a practice obstacle and check that it holds the angle under light drill pressure. Start at low speed to learn how it feels.
- 3 usesReaching hidden fasteners
You learn how much bend the shaft takes and how to line up the bit before driving. Most cabinet and furniture screws become manageable on the first try.
- 30 daysThe bit set becomes the default
The bit storage bar keeps sizes together, so you stop digging through the toolbox. Swapping bits becomes routine on every small job.

Questions and answers
The shaft holds the angle you set under light to medium drill pressure. Keep the drill at low speed and let the bit seat fully in the head before you increase pressure. For heavy structural bolts, use a rigid driver.
Yes, if your drill or driver takes a standard 1/4 inch hex bit. The hex shank seats in most chucks and bit holders, so you can use the bits you already have with it.
It is built for reach, not for breaking loose a seized bolt. Flex in the shaft grows under heavy load, so it suits cabinet fittings, furniture hardware and electronics screws. Switch to a straight driver for anything that needs maximum force.
Ten bits: slotted 3, 4, 5 and 6, Phillips PH1 and PH2, Torx T15 and T20, and hex H4 and H5. The set covers the common fastener types in flat-pack furniture, appliances and electronics.
Yes. The segmented body holds the shape you bend it into, so you can plan the reach before the drill touches the screw. Gentle, moderate bends hold best over time. Avoid forcing sharp kinks.
Unplug the appliance or power off the device first. Run the drill at low speed, keep the bit square to the screw, and use light pressure so the screw head and the finish stay intact.
