Our verdict

A single-purpose 5/16 inch flat driver from Klein's well-rated line, useful mainly as a specific-size addition to a set rather than a starter tool.

Overview

Klein's 646-5/16M ships as one fixed-tip screwdriver, carrying a 5/16 inch flat blade. It measures 9.75 x 2 x 2 inches overall and weighs 0.2 pounds, with no handle material listed in the spec sheet.

Klein numbers its cabinet-tip drivers by size, and the 5/16M code is the clearest identifier of what this tool actually does since no handle material or shank type is listed. Buying it as a single piece makes sense for filling one gap in an existing set rather than starting a collection from scratch.

  • 5/16 inch flat tip
  • 9.75 x 2 x 2 inch overall size
  • 0.2 pound weight
  • Sold as a single piece

Who it's for

Electricians or technicians who need one specific 5/16 inch flat tip to fill a gap in an existing driver set. Not a fit for someone wanting a multi-bit or starter driver, since this ships as a single fixed tip.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Compact at 9.75 inches overall
  • Light at 0.2 pounds for a pouch
  • Sold individually to match one tip size
Cons
  • Single fixed tip only
  • No bit-swapping or storage case
  • No handle material listed

Performance notes

Shank length of 9.75 inches gives enough reach into recessed screws, while the 2 x 2 inch handle footprint keeps grip diameter modest for a single-handed turn. Weighing 0.2 pounds, it adds little bulk to a tool pouch. Because the tip size is fixed at 5/16 inch, it is a one-job driver rather than a substitute for a multi-bit set.
