Wire Twisting Drill Attachments - Are They Any Good? #diy

How well do these wire twisting drill attachments really work? #makingstuff #diy

I'm glad you've shown us how ( and if ) these wire twisters work.
Now I know.

Never seen someone try to install a bit without lifting up the chuck

on stranded wire don't pre twist before putting on the wire nut. put the wires into wire nut straight next to each other and use the wire nut to twist the wires together. works way better. so if you tried that with a wire nut and stranded likely would have worked

I guess if you have a large job, it can be a Time saver. My pliers have worked well for 40 years and that's what I use

[erasamus]

this seems like a solution to a problem no one has

[speedyz]

Push the bit in, while pulling out on the collet, release the collet while holding the bit at full depth, it will lock in place

Got one last week, mine 2.5sq.mm. 2 line does not get a good result as yours...

Bring one of these things on our sites - and you'll be gone immediately.

Wagos only...

[nicohert]

What is this used for nowadays? Just use Wagos or so..we used them last around 40 years ago😂

Supposed to allow the wire nut to twisting stranded wire don't twist before the wire nut goes on

[bobweiram]

You're supposed to pull out the socket tip as you insert the end of the bit otherwise it won't engage.

[KnSh]

Need to pull the ring around the insert to get the bit into the impact driver!

You do not need to pre-twist the conductors if you are using a wire nut.
If you are going to sit there and argue, go try it yourself.
Bet you won’t.

If you need these instead of your linesman’s then you have no business doing electrical work. Always hated these things.

[markgallagher]

Just learn to use your linemen’s pliers and you won’t need this.

2024 - americans still using wire nuts ... god lol ... run ...

Not staying in? Stop buying cheap chinese crap. Yeah yeah you might pay more for an American made one but at least it will be milled to the proper specs. The Chinese don't care if it's wrong. You bought it and most likely would not return it.
