I. What is a screwdriver?

A screwdriver is a hand tool used to tighten or remove screws. A screwdriver is simply made up of three parts: a plastic or wooden handle, a long hard metal shaft, and a square or star-shaped head that can be inserted into the screw head and tightened.

III. Structure of screwdriver

A screwdriver consists of three main parts: the handle, the screwdriver shaft, and the screw head.

• Handle: usually made of rubber, plastic or wood. Convenient and comfortable design for users to hold and turn the screwdriver easily.

• Screwdriver shaft: usually a long and slender bar made of durable, hard metal. Ensures resistance to bending and twisting, good resistance to force during tightening and twisting.
• Screw head: is the part used to connect to the screw. To prevent the screw from falling off during operation, the screw head is often magnetized. Screw heads can be designed in many different shapes, such as square head, flat head, star head, hex head... These screw heads are designed to fit many different types of screws and bolts.

IV. How to use a screwdriver

• Choose a screw head that matches the type of screw you are using. The screw head must fit exactly into the groove of the screw to prevent slipping and to smooth the groove.
• Place the screw head into the screw slot. Make sure the screw head is correct and fits tightly in the slot.
• Use the handle to turn the screwdriver in the correct direction and apply moderate pressure. Be careful not to apply too much or too little pressure, as this may cause the groove to slip or the screw head to break.
