What size screw heads can the Engineer PZ-58 grip?
The PZ-58 is intended for protruding screw heads about 3 to 9.5 mm in diameter. Its vertical serrations at the jaw tip grip damaged or rusted heads from the front, including low-profile truss-head screws, so the head must be accessible to the jaws.
Can the PZ-58 be used where access is limited?
Yes, the PZ-58 is designed to grip a screw vertically at the tip, which the manufacturer describes as useful in narrow spaces. It is intended for removing damaged or rusted screws and can also handle special-drive screws such as pentalobe and hexalobular types when the head can be gripped securely.
Which screws should not be used with the PZ-58?
Engineer advises against using it on high-hardness tapping screws, drilling screws, and coarse-thread screws. Screws completely seized by rust or adhesive may also be impossible to remove, so the tool should not be treated as a guarantee of extraction in those conditions.
Can the PZ-58 cut wire as well as remove screws?
Yes. The integrated cutter is rated for soft iron wire up to 2.6 mm and single-conductor copper wire up to 3.2 mm. The tool also has a spring-assisted opening action for repeated work, while its main purpose remains gripping and turning damaged or rusted screw heads.
What are the PZ-58's size and construction details?
The PZ-58 is 160 mm long and weighs 130 g. The manufacturer lists a carbon-steel body with elastomer grips, a 17.5 mm tip width, a 28 mm tip length, and a 8 mm cutter length; the vertical serrations are hardened to HRC 60 ±2.
