Wiha Bit Kit For Leatherman Multi Tools
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 ส.ค. 2024
- The Wiha Technician Bit Kit made for the Wiha Technician Screwdriver is one of the best options for increasing the screwdriver capabilities of your Leatherman multi tools. Unlike some other bit options, these bits use the same type of retention that Leatherman's proprietary bit kits use. That makes this bit kit a virtual drop in option for Leatherman users that use the Leatherman bit extension in combination with their multi tools.

Hi Ben, actually these are bits replacement for wiha 26 in 1 screwdriver, the "technician" is only the title for that type of bit set. You can check it on:

Would you mind doing reviews for Mininch Tool Pen and Tool Pen Mini? They come in Imperial, Metric and EU editions.
@@madu132 thanks for the links!
I can not find this set,is it gone now?
I watched this video many many months ago after buying a Leatherman Surge. I purchased a set like this for my Surge, I removed the retainer ring from my bit extender and installed a small neodymium magnet in the bottom, big improvement. I also purchased a sheath for my Surge and bit kit by RAE gear. I’m looking to see if you know if someone makes a 3D bit holder for these Whia bits that is like the Leatherman bit holder? I like the RAE gear Leatherman bit sheath but don’t want to carry the Leatherman bits just the Whia bits.
Been doing maintenance for 50 years. I have carried a Leatherman tool on my hip since 1983/1984. I have those flat bits and they're carried in the sheath WITH my Leatherman and bit adapter. They have worked well for me. Both racks of bits fit in the sheath as well. What he didn't address is carrying the Wiha bits. Your multitool should never be used as a primary tool for anything...only as a backup. If you need to torque down an a screw...do it with a screwdriver. A multitool is all about convenience and having everything right there where and when you need it. The last thing I need is another pouch to carry with bits.
My goodness, 50 years is a long time.
@@txtoolcrib Started in a family business...we did all our own maintenance.
This! I always have an assortment of "real" bits in my car, but when I'm there in the moment I at least have the comfort of having 42 completely usable ends in my pockets slimly tucked in with my leatherman with the two slides + the one on the tool. I could probably use the same space to carry 6-10 "real bits" which would give me 12-20 ends but that's a whole lot less than 42. Everyone can consider which is better, the durability benefit or the practical benefit.
Their isn't anything that's tight that won't have torque even a little and if my flat bit bent from just a little torque they're junk
For my current job, since we only deal with Phillips, standard, 3mm, and 4mm hex bolts, I’m pocket-carrying the Arc, with a Wiha 3mm/4mm hex bit in my ratchet driver extension. I keep the sheath with the full Leatherman bit kit and remaining Wiha Industrial double-sided bits where my multitool would go, in my backpack, so I can travel light with everything I need on my person. It’s a fantastic setup.
Awesome Leatherman hack. Thank you! I've also discovered the 77783 kit which is a security bit kit. Handy little tools for many many jobs!
Welcome back! I missed your awesome videos.
Thank you. Work has kept me pretty busy lately.
Dude, you're a day late for me. I spent hours last night online trying to find a solution for exactly what you described. Thank you. This will be perfect setup for my Surge and additional Bit Driver Extender. Again, big thanks.
I bought that bit set. I have to use the pliers to pull them out of the Leatherman bit extender. Pain in the ass.
Received mine today after a looooong wait. Thanks for your videos, you quickly became one of my main source of information when it comes to tools. Greetings from France.
Great video! Thanks! I went with 77780 instead as it has hex bits rather than square bits
Recently bought this bit set based on this video. Love it. It did take a while to get. I forget exactly how long....maybe a month. Worth the wait. Fits perfect. Easy to insert and extract. Meets my most common needs.
A great bit set, but I have to use pliers to get them out of the extender. That may change with time and use.
Dude, amazing job. This is just the info I needed.
To restate another comment I read here. Look at the other variations of the “reload kit” the one listed here in the video is great but I don’t have a use for half the bits. Another SKU of the same kind of reload kit had a better variety for my use.
just ordered one. I have never had my leatherman ones fail but I know better to over torque them. they are designed to lay flatter of course for easier carry. I need some security bits.
A friend of mine ordered me a set of Snap-On hardened bits... I’ve tried everything from Wheeler to Lyman... there’s no comparison... the Snap-On bits are apparently Impact rated and I have yet to twist one or strip one out. Costly yes.. but amazing.
Wiha makes a security bit kit as well (harder to find) and the philips in that kit has a flathead on the other side like a leatherman.
Excellent find! I always liked the idea of the leatherman bit kit, but never particularly liked the execution; the torx bits have all twisted on me, and the Phillips bits also leave more to be desired.
I have other wiha products and I agree that they make quality bits. Thanks for sharing!
There are others out there, but Wiha is a step above others that I have run across.
This is awesome 👍 I've been looking for full sized 1/4" bits for my Leathermans that will work with the bit adaptors 👍
These fit the bill nicely.
Looks like a fantastic solution for the weak flat drivers. I got mad using the ph#2 taking off door hinges to balance the door and the bit head slip every time. Change the bit for other Ph#2 and same problem, I couldn't tighten the screw. I had to go back to my truck and get the Wiha 76889 and take those 3D bits to complete the task.
Is not bad the leatherman bits but I'm always afraid of broke those bits. Thanks, Sir to share this info. I will buy them and try if fit in the SwissTool bit the one with the wrench. 9-10 slots are more than enough to consider double ends.
Hi, would this double bit work for Victorinox SwissTool Plus? Will they fit into the leather case? Will they stick to the bit holder?
You get a dedicated No1 and No2 Phillips in the LM kit as well.
I really like this full sized version for the Leatherman extension. It has been incredibly useful on the job.
Thank you very much, the bits are exactly what I have been looking for.
I just wish leatherman would develop a magnetic extension and great content as always Ben thanks
Thank you. I wish they did too. I know quite a few people would prefer to have a regular extension that would fit their bit holder. That way they could use bits they already own. I don’t see them doing it anytime soon though.
Oh and by the way my 18 month old son now only goes to sleep with your voice in the background and my wife blames you for my multitool addiction.
Well congratulations. I am blessed with three daughters. Extended my deepest apologies to your wife.
I justify all of my purchases to my wife by explaining that everything I buy will eventually more than pay for itself. Doesn’t always work though. 😂
They need to make the extension for the new super tool 300m available by itself. It is magnetic with no ring and I think it is a little shallower.
Btw, not including state tax, Wiha has this kit currently for an additional $1.69. Which includes shipping cost, at least to my address. If you can't wait for Amazon, this might be an alternative buying solution.
loving it! good idea
They work really well.
What are you using/doing for bit storage? would be interested in seeing your ideas on that aspect of this upgrade.. Great Vid as always
I'm using an old rubber bit holder sleeve, but I am looking for a better solution.
@@txtoolcrib if it catches on wondering if anyone would 3d print a custom holder similar to the leatherman bit holder
That would be a great option. Hopefully!
The other replies won't load, so this may be redundant. They easily fit into a Tic Tac box with room to spare.
I’m a little late to the party here, but consider a wera bit check! Good bits, and comes with the rapidaptor bit holder that’s long enough not to get stuck in the Leatherman bit extender.
There are different bit sets for the Wiha's Ultra Driver. I would definitely like to pick up one of the bit sets to go along with my Wave Plus. Quick question, how are you carrying the bits? I'd hate to just carry them loose or in a pouch.
I bought the "Wiha SB 7947-005 FlipSelector Standard" set.
Comes with standard bits and a belt clip.
I just replaced the standard with the double bits. Works just fine.
They fit easily into a Tic Tac box.
Duuuuuude i was just looking for something like this today!!!! Niiiceee!!!!
They work fantastic!
Great video! Thank you!
Thank you!
I think I need this!
I love these bits
Great info and really cool to know definitely a good way to carry better bits for the Leatherman
Now if I can find a decent case for them.
I had all of those but I found Chapman set and the Chapman set is a head above the leather Man tools
great video Ben , unfortunately that link goes to a product no longer available .. hopefully they get released again
Search wiha 77781
@@rblast1 I will look into that ,thank you
But is there a container to store them though? I know wiha other products that green and red bit selectors that comes with containers to store them. Why not just get those instead? Only difference is they are not double sided.
They are sold out. I was able to get them in sets of two bits on Amazon
There are other options like the Wiha 77782 bit which features more allen (hex) bits or the 77780
I notice that a lot of Indonesia are jumping on the multi-tool band wagon as of late, and producing some good quality products to be used with Leatherman etc. Security torcs are of interest to me, as you can use them on the LM's themselves. PS. How goes the Super-Surge rebuild?
I have been back to work since the COVID restrictions have lightened up. I have had to put it on hold for a bit.
Gonna get these but looking for a small maybe magnetic holder or small case
Please let me know if there are longer shafts. Great video btw.
Good steer ! Great idea !
Any suggestions for how to carry these other than in a small zip-lock bag?
amazing tools 🔧....
Thanks for this info.
No problem!
Are the torx just standard or security torx? My only complaint with the leatherman bits is I cannot find security torx.
On this one they are standard.
Steve Dolin I think item number 77783 has security bits. Try searching that and see if it has what you're looking for.
Compatible with ozark trail multiforce? Thx in advance
They are compatible with the Ozark Trail Multiforce extension, but not the regular driver exchanger. The reason is that the main exchanger uses a ball detent catch and the extension uses a magnet. They will fit, but they will slip right out because there is no magnet to keep them in place.
@@txtoolcrib putting a small magnet in the bid driver of the mulitforce was one of the first things I did lol.
As @Maxlvledc points out if you place a magnet in the main driver and the extention it works with all the bits you want to use. It works with regular 1/4inch, Leatherman flat, and ball detent bits. I have a set of these on the way now but I am guessing they will work fine as well. You don't even need to glue them in.
Here are the magnets to get: amzn.to/2ZbVnHD
Hope this helps.
I just got my bits in and can now confirm with a magnet I shared installed in the main driver and in the extension these bits work. So i t would now seem that the Multiforce is the most versatile bit driver out there right now. It works will all the different kinds of bit I have. I will make a video demonstrating this.
@@NewZonaRides I came to a similar conclusion
Why didn't Leatherman put notch on the shank of their extension to keep it in the multitool? I think this is a glaring omission.
That’s a good question.
I wonder if these would fit in the bitvault?
Ordered! Thanks
You’re quite welcome.
Nice, not so compact like the leatherman bits. Where do you put the loose wiha bits, in your pocket so you can lose them?
Hi. Is it compatible with Victorinox bit holder (from Victorinox multitools)?
Do you know what other extensions/bit holders than can hold these wiha bits?
Donde puedo comprar esto
Hi frend,
would this double bit work for Victorinox SwissTool Plus? Will they fit into the leather case? Will they stick to the bit holder?
Do you have a good storage solution for double-sided bits?
Any ideas on a good bit holder to carry these?
Does it fit the leather man ratchet?
Any knowledge regarding the Chapman vs Wiha 1/4" bits, which are stronger?
I would be tickled to simply find an adapter for my Rebar to add a bit set to it, without having to order anything on line...
What's your carrying solution for these bits?
Donde puedo comprar las puntas
How would this work with the Gerber arm bar or the Milwaukee six and one
The Gerber fits normal 1/4 inch hex bits. These double sided ones wouldn't work with those.
What’s your favorite ratchet to use with the surge/wiha double sided bits?
I haven’t decided yet. I’m still trying out a few more. So far it is the Wera Zyclop.
How would the Wiha set work with Gerbert Center-Drive?
No, I’m sorry they don’t. I just pulled out the Center Drive Plus to check. The holder does not allow the bit to seat low enough. You would be better off going with the standardized bit.
The link you posted was a dud
Anyone using these bits with prestacycle or topeak ratchets? Thanks!
Thanks for the tip. But do you know how I can carry all the bits. Does it fit in the Leatherman sleeve?
I haven’t really figured out a viable solution for that just yet. They certainly will not fit in the Leatherman bit sleeve though.
Tic Tac box.
Pick the bits that you'll be using on a regular basis and carry them in a small altoids tin, it takes up very little space in the pocket.
@@txtoolcrib push the bits into some clear vinyl tubing and then put that in the side loop?
How
Are you carrying them?
Honestly I have really only found the need to carry the dedicated #2 Phillips combination. I carry it inside of the bit extender.
I have the Leatherman bit extension, I had difficulty getting the Wiha bit in, and now it won't come out!
Are you still having trouble with it?
@@txtoolcrib I finally was able to remove it using vice grips to grab the bit and wresting with it. The bits seem to be very tight (in both the Wave bit extender and the Juice CS2 small bit extender). Lots of effort to get a bit in and significant problem removing. :-(
@@phopetindall buy the sight adjuster or the LM ratchet and your problem of tight fitting wil be solved, it uses a magnet instead of the spring
Any ideas on how to carry this kit in the sheath ?
Not yet, but I am looking at different options.
@@txtoolcrib I bought the "Wiha SB 7947-005 FlipSelector Standard" set.
Comes with standard bits and a belt clip.
I just replaced the standard with the double bits. Works just fine.
@@txtoolcrib Love this video! Wanted to follow up on Bully Jay’s question, were you able to figure out a good sheath to carry these with a standard sized Leatherman like the Signal?
I haven’t as of yet, but I’m still looking.
Yo quiero pagar en euros. Que tengo que hacer para pedir a Amazon

💚💚💚
No longer available on amazon.
I will get into it and try to get it updated. My apologies.
If you guys find an alternative let me know. I’m having trouble finding something similar.
If it needs the amount of torque that would damage the bits then you need to put your leatherman up and go get a screwdriver
It’s hard to argue with that.
@@txtoolcrib Thats my philosophy that has kept my leatherman in good shape. Good video nonetheless
Kinda ridiculous anything that's fastened down will take torque to break
They are still hustling the bit exchanger, but seem to have lost the ability to provide the bit set over at leatherface... they are on some BS! I understand discontinuing items from time to time, but they are a bunch of crybabies!
Nobody wants to talk with me because you all know I'm right... Leatherman is on some bullshit!
First and second comment btw 😂 if you wanna give something away pick me jeje 😏
Lol. I think I’m gonna have to hold onto this one.
They have a lot of really nice tools. I need to invest in more Wiha stuff.
Man they are sold out already!
Hopefully they will restock soon. That is the only link I have at the moment.
@@txtoolcrib Thank you for always responding to your questions on your channel. Us young workers in the field need some guidance on these multi tools and you are the first one I rely on to shoot it too us straight.
Doohan Tallywhack, I appreciate that very much. That was really my intention when I started this channel. I wanted to impart knowledge, not just in multi tools, to the younger generation. If there is any particular question you may have in general construction or metalworking, don’t hesitate to ask. I might not get back right away, but I do get back with everyone.
Just get a victorinox swiss tool and forget about all of that... 😉
@Jacob Dawson what has changed on letherman besides they stopped using oil and came with easy to brake parts?
I have a charge tti and a swisstool plus.
Swiss is everything u need.
U even can use standard bits by default.
Nn buy extra shit to have some proper drivers.
But there is a tool for everyone.
I prefer victorinox over latherman all day long!
And btw... did latherman changed their shitty bottle opener? 😂
@@mbhaus6349 I have a Swiss tool and you can't use standard bits in it. I also don't like how soft the steel is for the blades (knives and chisel). It's beautifully made, but it's not perfect.
@@choltzapple I can with mine. What u have to buy there with the latherman is included with my plus.
@@mbhaus6349 That bit adapter is included with the Charge, so it's really a comparison of what accessories you're paying for. The tool itself cannot use bits.
@@choltzapple just looked that up and i dont see any extra Tools for the charge.
Just the standard flat bit thing inside of the tool.
At this point why not just get a proper screw driver set.
Some may choose to do just that.
I DO NOT support communism!?!?
