Klein Tools 85148 Screwdriver Set with Magnetizer/Demagnetizer for Review

Our Summary

The Klein Tools 85148 is for electricians and DIY users who want a nine-piece screwdriver set with a magnetizer and demagnetizer.

The set includes cabinet tips in 3/16 and 5/16 inch, keystone tips in 1/4 and 5/16 inch, and Phillips tips in numbers 1, 2 and 3, with the catalog numbers listed. The tips are precision machined to reduce cam-out, and the chrome-plated, heat-treated blades resist corrosion. The handles are cushion-grip. A rare-earth magnetizer and demagnetizer can be swiped to magnetize or demagnetize the tips. The set is made in the USA and weighs about 1.92 pounds. The warranty is one year from the manufacturer. The model is 85148.

The screwdrivers are not insulated, so do not use them on live circuits, and turn power off at the breaker and test before working. Magnetized tips can pick up metal filings, and strong magnets can affect watches and other magnetic media. The listing says nine pieces, but the named tips add up to eight, so check the tray on arrival. Do not use a screwdriver as a chisel or a pry bar. Match the tip to the screw head to avoid stripping.

Best-Fit Shopper

This style of hand tools suits shoppers who already know they need screwdriver sets coverage and want a KLEIN TOOLS option with transparent listing details.

It is a weaker match if you need a fully custom install, a different capacity class, or a feature the hub row simply does not list.

What to Double-Check

Trade-offs are normal in screwdriver sets. A design that wins on portability may give up enclosed storage; a long wireless claim may assume open line-of-sight; a high load rating usually assumes even distribution.

Our Tool Pick badge is editorial shorthand for “worth considering in this category,” not a guarantee for every floor plan, campsite, or property layout.

Alternatives Context

Against generic no-name alternatives, KLEIN TOOLS listings often win on clearer packaging and easier returns through Amazon — still read the live seller and fulfillment line.

Against premium ecosystems, this unit may look simpler. That can be a feature if you want fewer apps and more straightforward hardware.

Final Buying Notes

Buy the Klein Tools 85148 Screwdriver Set with Magnetizer/Demagnetizer for if the hub numbers and feature set line up with your screwdriver sets job. Skip it if you need a capability the listing does not document.
