Wiha 70487 Magnetic Nut Setter Set overview

The Wiha 70487 is a compact six-piece metric nut setter set designed to help you seat nuts with clarity and control. Each piece features a high-visibility color code, making size identification quick even in dim conditions or tight spaces. The magnetic tip keeps fasteners in place as you start the drive, so you can work more smoothly and reduce the chance of dropped parts during busy tasks.

Key benefits at a glance

• Color-coded sizing for fast, accurate identification (8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 mm).
• Magnetic nut setters provide temporary retention for hands-free starts.
• Metric sizes on a universal 1/4-inch hex drive for broad compatibility.
• Precision-machined tip designed to minimize cam-out and improve seating reliability.
• Impact-rated construction up to 700 in-lbs for high-torque Li-ion drivers.

Design and performance in practical use

These nut setters are crafted to align with standard hardware workflows, offering a robust combination of grip, precision, and torque handling. The 1/4-inch hex drive enables easy swap-in with a wide range of impact drivers and cordless drills, while the precision tip reduces the chance of cross-threading or slippage. The magnetic tip helps keep nuts aligned as you begin driving, contributing to cleaner installations and fewer interruptions on the job.

Real-world use cases

Ideal for cabinet assembly, machinery maintenance, and automotive or electronics hardware tasks, the Wiha 70487 set supports quick size recognition and reliable nut seating. The color-coding helps you grab the right size fast, so you can stay focused on the task rather than hunting for the correct tool.

• Fast, secure seating of metric nuts in tight or cluttered work areas.
• Reliable performance with Li-ion impact drivers thanks to the high torque rating.
• Clear visual cues reduce time spent sorting sizes during assembly or repair jobs.

Tips for best results

Store the set in its case or tray, align the tip with the fastener, and apply steady torque using the correct size. The combination of a magnetic tip and precision-machined end helps minimize cam-out and dropped fasteners during routine maintenance or assembly tasks.
