I'm here regarding to my previous post : https://tinyurl.com/y5bn8ul7
My 2nd backup SWISS screwdriver will be washed by an ordinary soap like Svelto,because i really wish to discover the reason of it failure.
If after this "EXPERIMENT" the result will be the same,then i will never buy again from this brand (PB SWISS TOOLS).

The reason is very simple,i just don't understand why these screwdrivers are not allowed to be cleaned in the moment of need.
So for this reason,if i will discorver that "PB SWISS Screwdrivers/with resin coating" can't be washed,i will never buy them again.
End of story.

P.S I will update this topic if something on my handle will change.

1. There’s absolutely no need for this thread. It adds nothing over the old one.
2. Why are you whining here instead of contacting PB Swiss to see what they say??

Good morning to everybody.
So today i'm finally here to make the final conclusions about the "self decomposing" Santoprene® handle of PB SWISS SCREWDRIVERS.

However i need to say the following things before to start this discussion.
PB SWISS screwdrivers are not really defective and the self decomposing process is not caused by the simple agining/passing of the time.
So from this point of view you can be calm,because without the specific condition the self decomposing process couldn't be started.

Arrived at this point,without too much words etc .....
i can confirm at 100% that this problem is caused by the ordinary laundry detergent for clothes like :
Dixan,Dexal,Sole etc .....
I'm total 0 in chemistry,so i'm not able to explain you which kind of chemical prosess is happening behind,but as i've observed by my self,if your handle (wet by your own sweat or water) will touch the laundry powder,then you can already say good bye my dear swiss friend.

If you are asking how did i made this discover,then the answer is very simple:
I'm repairing a lot of laundry machines  :clap: and yes !
my PB SWISS Screwdriver was in touch with these powder-detergents.

If you won't believe me,then pick up your own PB SWISS Screwdriver and leave it on the top of the laundry powder for 10/15 minutes.
After some days or a month,your soft coating will begin to feels sticky,etc...

THE END.

I dunno, man... given that Santoprene is marketed for use in washing machine and dishwasher parts (with explicit detergent resistance standards), it doesn’t seem likely to me that they’d be sensitive to detergents.

One would have to do a controlled experiment, I think.


Did you ever contact PB Swiss and ask what they had to say about your handle failures??

I haven't enought time to explain every detail to them.
However,my screwdriver handle was in touch only with powder-detergents and liquid soaps like svelto or dexel.
So for this reason i'm pretty sure that in my case the cause is only there .... (Yes! i'm talking only for my self)

Actually it would be very nice if PB SWISS could release the CAB version of their "electronic precision screwdrivers",because i lost my faith in these soft coating & stuff like that ...  :horse:
After my previous experience with the self melting handle of ifixit(Made in Taiwan) and the pb swiss screwdriver is enought for me !
