Frequently asked questions

Common questions about APEX from 3G Electric.

What materials are APEX insert bits made from?

APEX insert bits, such as the Torq-Set and Phillips models, are constructed from S2 steel. This material is chosen for its durability and resistance to wear under impact loads. The bits are available in imperial sizes and feature a standard tip type. For example, the #10 Torq-Set bit and the #2 Phillips bit are both made of S2 steel and are impact rated. This construction allows them to be used with power tools in industrial settings. The bits are sold in packs of five, providing a convenient quantity for maintenance and assembly tasks. When selecting an APEX bit, consider the material and impact rating to ensure compatibility with your application.

What is the difference between APEX non-marring bit holders and standard bit holders?

APEX non-marring bit holders are designed to prevent damage to the workpiece surface during fastening or drilling. They are available in models that accept 1/4-inch or 5/16-inch hex-shank bits. Some versions feature a magnetic tip for bit retention, while others are non-magnetic. These holders are not impact rated, making them suitable for general fastening and light-duty assembly where impact drivers are not used. Standard bit holders may not have the non-marring feature and could be impact rated. The non-marring design is beneficial in applications where surface finish is critical, such as in electronics or precision assembly. APEX offers several part numbers, including UG-855, UG-825, UG-M-838, UG-M-835, and UG-M-490, each with specific compatibility and features.

What are the specifications of the APEX truck bed extension rack?

The APEX truck bed extension rack, part number HITCH-EXT, is a 53-inch-long adjustable rack that mounts into a standard 2-inch receiver hitch. It adjusts in width from 28-1/4 inches to 48-3/4 inches and has a height of 10 inches. The maximum load capacity is 375 pounds. It is available in black. This product is designed to extend bed capacity for hauling longer items. The adjustable width allows it to accommodate different load sizes. The rack is constructed for use with standard receiver hitches, making it a versatile accessory for trucks. When using this product, ensure that the load does not exceed the rated capacity and that it is properly secured.

Are APEX Torq-Set bits impact rated?

Yes, the APEX Torq-Set bits, such as the #10 industry size model (MPN 170-10A-5PK), are impact rated. This means they are designed to withstand the high torque and repeated impacts of power impact drivers. The bits are made of S2 steel and have a standard tip type. They are sold in a 5-pack. Impact-rated bits are suitable for heavy-duty fastening tasks where standard bits might fail. When using impact-rated bits, ensure that the tool is compatible and that the bit size matches the fastener. APEX offers these bits for industrial and maintenance applications where reliability under impact is required.

What sizes of hex-shank bits do APEX bit holders accept?

APEX bit holders are available in models that accept either 1/4-inch or 5/16-inch hex-shank bits. For example, the UG-825 and UG-M-838 accept 1/4-inch bits, while the UG-855 and UG-M-835 accept 5/16-inch bits. The holders have a hex-compatible bit shank and are designed for power tool use. Some models feature a magnetic tip for bit retention, and all are non-marring. They are not impact rated. When selecting a bit holder, match the compatible bit size to your bits. APEX provides these options to cover common hex shank sizes used in assembly and fastening tasks.

What is the UNSPSC code for APEX insert bits?

The UNSPSC code for APEX insert bits, such as the Torq-Set and Phillips models, is 27112814. This code falls under the category of hand tools and power tool accessories. The UNSPSC code is useful for procurement and inventory management, allowing organizations to classify and track these items systematically. When ordering APEX insert bits from 3G Electric, the UNSPSC code is provided in the product specifications. This helps ensure accurate identification and compatibility with existing purchasing systems. The code applies to the bits themselves, not to bit holders or other accessories, which may have different classifications.
