INFORMATION SHEET 4.1-1 Classification of Hand Tools

Basic Hand Tools (Driving Tools)

A screwdriver is a tool for driving screws

and rotating other machine elements with the mating drive system. The screwdriver is made up of a head or tip, which engages

with a screw, a mechanism to apply torque by rotating the tip, and some way to position

and support the screwdriver. o Phillips Screwdriver – used to

drive or fasten positive slotted

screws. It is a screwdriver that could take greater torque and could provide tighter fastenings.

o Slotted Screwdriver - used to drive or fasten negative slotted

screws.

Torx Screwdriver Set- used to drive or fasten six pointed star screws. In modern

electrical appliances, they use screws with heads of non-standard shape to prevent

users of the device from easily disassembling them.

Hex (Allen Wrench) – used to drive or fasten hexagonal screws. The head has a hexagonal

hole turned by an allen key. An Allen key is a hexagonal shaped wrench bent in letter-L.

Jeweler's Screwdriver Set – is a set of small screw drivers composed of slotted and Philips screwdrivers.

Socket Wrench – is a type of wrench, or tightening tool, that uses separate,

removable sockets to fit many different sizes of fittings and fasteners, most commonly nuts and bolts. It generally includes a

ratcheting mechanism that allows the nut to be tightened or loosened with a continuous

motion, rather than requiring that the wrench be removed and refitted after each turn. The sockets attached to the ratchet

through a square fitting that locks onto them and come in four common sizes: 1/4

inch, 3/8 inch, 1/2 inch, and 3/4 inch.

Soldering Tools

Soldering Iron – is a device for applying heat to melt solder in attaching two metal parts. A soldering iron is composed of a

heated metal tip and an insulated handle. Heating is often achieved electrically, by

passing a current, supplied through an electrical cord, through a heating element. For electrical work, wires are usually

soldered to printed circuit boards, other wires, or small terminals. A low-power iron (15-30 Watts) is suitable for this work.

Soldering Tool Stand – is a place of the

soldering iron to keep them away from flammable materials. The stand often also

comes with a sponge and flux pot for cleaning the tip.

Desoldering Sucker – is the removal of solder and components from a circuit for

troubleshooting, repair purposes and to salvage components. Electronic

components are often mounted on a circuit board and it is usually desirable to avoid damaging the circuit board, surrounding

components, and the component being removed.

Splicing Tools

Long Nose – is used for holding, bending and stretching the lead of electronic component or connecting wire.

Side Cutter - is a wire-cutting plier, though they are not used to grab or turn

anything, but are used to cut wire.

Wire Stripper - is a pair of opposing

blades much like scissors or wire cutters. The addition of a center notch makes it easier to cut the insulation without cutting

the wire. This type of wire stripper is used by rotating it around the insulation while applying pressure in order to make a cut

around the insulation. Since the insulation is not bonded to the wire, it then pulls

easily off the end.

Boring Tools

12V Mini-Drill – is used to bore or drill hole in the printed circuit board (pcb).

Portable Electric Drill – is used for boring

hole/s in the plastics chassis or metal chassis with the used of drill bits.

Metal Files –is a hand tool used to shape

metals by grinding. A file series of sharp, parallel ridges

or teeth. Most files have a narrow, pointed tang at one end to which a handle can be

fitted.

Flat File - are parallel in width and tapered in

thickness; they are used for flat surfaces and edges.

Half Round File - is a taper

in width and thickness, coming to a point, and are narrower than a standard

half round. Used for filing inside of rings.

Round File - is also called

rat-tail files, are gradually tapered and are used for many tasks that require a

round tool, such as enlarging round holes or

cutting a scalloped edge.

Cutting Tools – is used for cutting materials.

Utility Knife – is a common tool used in cutting various trades and crafts for a variety of purposes.

Hacksaw - is a saw for cutting metal. Some of them have pistol grips which keep the

hacksaw firm and easy to grip. The small hand-held hacksaws consist of a metal arch with a handle that fits around a

narrow, rigid blade. The blade has many small saw teeth along one side.

Auxiliary Tools

Ball-peen Hammer –is a type of hammer used in metalworking. The ball-peen

hammer remains useful for many tasks such as tapping punches and chisels. The

original function of the hammer was to "peen" riveted or welded material so that it will exhibit the same elastic behavior as

the surrounding material.

Magnifying Glass – a convex lens which is used to produce a magnified image of an

object.

Paint Brush – made of bristles set in

handle, use for cleaning dirty parts of a circuit or an object.

ANSWER KEY TO SELF-CHECK 4.1-3

1. It is suitable for electronic work because if we exceed its maximum temperature, it can cause the printed circuit board to break or in

electronic component to damage. 2. It is the best because it is flexible in observing all sides of the circuit

guided by bright light.

3. It is best to use the right size of the Philips screw driver because this will prevent the screw to loosen its thread.

4. It is best to use the right size of the drill bit in boring a hole because

undersize drilled hole will need it drilled it again (This will prolong the work activity) while too much size of the drilled hole will cause a

wastage in the material. 5. Soldering stand keeps the soldering iron from flammable materials

and sometime we accidentally touch our skin and burn.

INFORMATION SHEET 4.2-1 Safety Requirements with the Use of

Personal Protective Equipment

Hand Tool Design, Selection, and Setup

1. Weight - Use the lightest weight tool possible to avoid injury. Excessively heavy tools should be equipped with a means of

mechanical support and attached hoses should be supported.

Support - Equip tools with some means of mechanical support so you don't need to hold a heavy tool continuously

while working. If mechanical support cannot be provided, the workstation should be designed so you can put the tool down

or rest it in a holster when it is not in use.

2. Balance - Additional force is required to

use a badly balanced tool. The tool's center of gravity should be close to the body, close

to the handles, and in line with the center of the hand holding the tool. Also, the weight of an unsupported hose can

unbalance a tool.

3. Torque Control - High torque requires a lot of force to keep the tool from rotating out of your hand. Torque settings should

be set to the minimum required by job specifications, especially for in-line and

pistol-shaped tools

4. Grip - Tool handles should allow stable and efficient grip. The handle should be cylindrical or oval in shape, with a

diameter of between 1.25 and 1.75 inches. Tool handles should contact as much of

the hand and fingers as possible. Grips should be made of non-slip compressible and non-conductive material. However, if

the task requires fine manipulations, a small handle and a precision grip are

preferred. Handles should not press on the base of the palm. Use tools with long handles or handles which are large and

rounded enough to distribute the force over a large area of the palm. Avoid form-fitting handles (handles with finger grooves),

since they may not fit the hand size of every user. Handles should be kept clean

of slippery grease, oil, or sweat.

Code No.

Module:

Using Hand Tools


April, 2009

L.R.T.Escobar 25 of

38

5. Span - On two-handled manual tools, like

scissors, the open span should be about 4 inches and the closed span should be about 1.5 inches.

6. Spring-loaded handles - A spring-loaded

mechanism saves muscular effort and reduces mechanical stress on the backs

and sides of fingers for such tools as scissors, pliers, and other manual cutting and gripping tools which have to be opened

and closed repeatedly during use.

7. Choose the right tool shape - Pistol-shaped tools should be used on a vertical

surface or on a horizontal surface below waist height. Bend the tool, not the wrist.

8. Avoid bending over your work.

9. Avoid overhead work. Use a ladder to reduce the need for outstretched arms.

10. Keep the elbows close to the body

11. Tilt the work surface instead of the

wrist.

12. Stand with weight evenly distributed between feet. When standing for long

periods of time, rest one foot on a sturdy object above floor height and switch legs periodically.
