Introduction

This guide will help you replace the magnet at the bottom of your IFixit 4mm aluminium precision driver.

This may be helpful:

* if you need to remove something stuck to the magnet inside the shaft (bearing, small screw...)
* if your magnet has become broken or lost strength
* if you're curious and addicted to taking things appart
A year ago, I caught a steel ball bearing inside my screwdriver. With the bearing inside, bits wouldn't stay in because of the lower magnetic strength and insertion depth. I tried a few things, but eventually removed the bearing by heating up my screwdriver with a blowtorch, which demagnetised the magnet, and allowed me to retrieve the bearing.[br]

With the magnet no longer magnetic, I inserted 2 4mmx2mm disc magnets at the bottom of my driver to hold the bits in place. They stuck out a little, but at least my driver held bits in place again, and I have been using it for the past year.[br]

I stumbled upon this guide : [guide|145856|Reattach the cap on an IFixit Precision Bit Driver|new_window=true] and did it in reverse to see what was inside. Turns out, the screwdriver is hollow, and I could see the old magnet through the hole.[br]

I took advantage of this to remove the old magnet, and restore my original insertion depth
