Which screwdriver is designed for limited access?

• A. Offset Screwdriver
• B. Slotted Screwdriver
• C. Phillips Screwdriver
• D. Torx Screwdriver

Answer: (A)

In tight or restricted spaces, the tool must reach the screw without the handle getting in the way. An offset screwdriver is designed for this need because the blade is offset from the handle, giving clearance so you can turn the screw even when there isn’t much room for your hand or the tool to move. This geometry lets you engage and drive screws that are recessed or surrounded by other parts. The other options describe screw head shapes rather than how far the tool can reach. Slotted, Phillips, and Torx screwdrivers can fit different screw heads, but their straight shafts don’t inherently solve limited-access situations, so they’re less capable in cramped spaces.
