I'm looking for a 5.5mm nut driver bit with a standard hex-drive shaft, fordoing up M3 nuts.For some bizarre reason all the sets I've found typically have 5mm and 6mm butnot 5.5mm - thelatter must be more commonly needed then 5mm, which AFAIK is only used for M3threaded spacers and Dconnector jackscrews....Anyone found a 5.5mm in a set anywhere?I've looked at B&Q, RS,Farnell,Rapid,Halfords,CPC & Screwfix so far....

I take it you must have one with a shaft attached? 5.5mm is easy enough tofind as a socket - perhaps you could get one of those and superglue it toan extension?

There's one in the woolworths set with lots of drill bits and other bits n pieces. Its marked 7/32, which is 5.55mm. Reduced from =A320 to =A34.

doing up M3 nuts.

not 5.5mm - the

threaded spacers and D

Happened to notice a drill & screwdriver bit set in Screwfix that has a

5.5mm nut driver (and every whole number between 5 and something like 12). (And many, many odd screwdriver bits, spirit level, hole saws, etc.)

It is the Makita kit that was being sold at around 20-00 recently - and IIRC as a freebie with some drill or other. But I cannot now find it on the SF site.

Ah - yes I can. (Odd, couldn't find it by searching just now.)
