Abstract
A two-ended screwdriver bit sized and configured to fit and lock in chucks that accept bits complying with American National Standards Institute specification ANSI B107.4-1982 for ¼ inch hexagonal bits. The two-ended bit has a hexagonal shank with two circumferentially-extending grooves in the screwdriver tip at each end of the shank. The length from the midpoint of each groove to the end of its adjacent screwdriver is ⅜ inches, permitting either end of the bit to be seated in a standard chuck.
