FirstRate manufactures electric screwdrivers for importers, distributors, and private label brands, with OEM support based on existing-tooling configuration, packaging adjustment, charger and plug localization, and accessory kit planning.

Which Electric Screwdriver Program Fits Your Market?
Electric screwdrivers are not a replacement for drills. They fill a different price point and a lighter use case — which is why they work best as a downward extension of an existing tool line, not a competing SKU.
4V Compact Electric Screwdriver Kits
Light-duty cordless electric screwdrivers for entry-level retail, household repair, and simple fastening tasks.
Typical torque: 3–5 N·m
Typical use: household repair, simple fastening, light assembly
Typical buyer: supermarkets, e-commerce sellers, value-focused importers
Note: In many markets, 3.6V and 4V are used interchangeably for the same compact screwdriver class. If your market uses “3.6V,” that naming can be applied in packaging while the program is built around a 4V model.
8V Cordless Electric Screwdrivers
A mid-range cordless program for buyers who need more torque than a compact 4V model can deliver, without moving into a full 12V platform structure.
Typical torque: 4–8 N·m
Typical use: furniture assembly, light installation work, mid-grade household repair, practical everyday fastening
Typical buyer: hardware retailers, e-commerce sellers building a tiered product line, importers looking for a value-positioned step-up SKU above entry-level
Note: The 8V program suits buyers who want a visible upgrade from a 4V compact screwdriver — improved torque and run time — while keeping retail price accessible. It works well as a second tier in a two-SKU household line.
12V Cordless Electric Screwdrivers
Stronger everyday fastening for installers, maintenance users, and practical hardware retail channels.
Typical torque: up to 220 N·m
Typical use: installer work, maintenance, advanced DIY
Typical buyer: distributors, hardware retailers, private label brands
18V Cordless Electric Screwdrivers
Higher-torque cordless electric screwdrivers for buyers building a broader cordless range or serving light trade demand.
Typical torque: 70–280 N·m
Typical use: higher-torque fastening, platform battery alignment, trade-oriented programs
Typical buyer: brands extending their cordless line, selected light trade channels
Corded Electric Screwdrivers
Corded fastening tools for repetitive work, workshop applications, and fixed-location use.
Typical torque: 8–18 N·m
Typical use: repetitive fastening, workbench use, continuous-use stations
Typical buyer: distributors, industrial supply buyers, repeat-use channels

Electric Screwdriver OEM & Private Label Options
The program should match your target channel and market position, not force every buyer into the same fixed package.
Our OEM projects are based on existing-tooling configuration. What this means in practice:

What Can Be Configured
These changes are straightforward and do not affect project timeline significantly.
Housing color adjustment within existing tooling range
Logo printing or molded brand presentation
Color box artwork and packaging customization
Instruction manual localization
Plug and charger adaptation
Accessory kit and bundle configuration
Case, insert, and packaging format adjustment
Carton marks, barcodes, and label updates
Retail set and e-commerce set planning
What Requires Separate Review
These go beyond standard OEM configuration scope and should be confirmed before project commitment — they may affect tooling timeline and minimum order structure.
Major housing or structural changes
Battery interface redesign
Non-standard internal architecture changes

How Importers Evaluate an Electric Screwdriver Sourcing Program
Most importers do not judge this category by price alone. They judge whether the line makes commercial sense. The key questions are usually:
Retail Position
Does the product fit entry retail, hardware distribution, light trade, or a more specialized application?
End User
Does the target user need simple fastening, installer-grade everyday use, or more repeat-use performance?
Drill Line Fit
Will the screwdriver sit below the current drill price band, or will it overlap with existing SKUs?
Tool or Kit
Is the market more likely to buy a standalone tool or a complete retail-ready kit?
Charging Structure
Does the charger, plug, and battery arrangement make sense for the destination market?
Reorder Stability
Can the approved specification stay consistent across future orders?

Compliance Planning Before Final Specification Lock
For electric screwdriver programs, compliance should be checked before final specifications are locked.
We typically support CE, RoHS, RCM, and ETL / UL-related requirements, with scope confirmed by model and destination market.
Key review points:
- model direction
- charger and plug format
- battery arrangement where applicable
- labeling and document scope
- destination market
Early review helps avoid delay, rework, and unnecessary certification risk. See Quality Control & Compliance
Electric Screwdriver Quality Control & Specification Repeatability
For electric screwdriver OEM programs, quality is not only about sample approval. It is about keeping the approved specification stable across repeat orders.
Key control points include incoming material inspection, torque consistency, switch durability, charging verification, and packaging integrity before shipment.
For a full breakdown of our quality control process and reorder control system, see our Quality Control page.

How We Work With Electric Screwdriver OEM Clients
You do not need a factory that only sends a catalog. You need a supplier that can help narrow the right program and keep execution under control.
We Start With Your Market Direction
Before recommending anything, we look at your target market, sales channel, and price band — so the starting model fits your program, not a generic template.
We Match the Product to Your Program
Once your direction is clear, the right voltage class, structure, accessory set, and packaging level become much easier to confirm. You get a recommendation, not a catalog.
We Align Branding and Packaging to Your Spec
Color, logo, packaging, accessories, and plug format are configured per your program scope before specification is locked — so your brand shows up correctly from day one.
We Confirm Your Compliance Path Before Final Lock
Plug type, charger format, battery structure, and destination market requirements are reviewed before specifications are frozen — so compliance delays do not appear after production has started.
We Build the Program So You Can Repeat It
The spec your team approved at sampling is the spec that ships on every reorder. No surprises between batches, no renegotiating what was already agreed.

Frequently Asked Questions
For standard electric screwdriver configurations using existing tooling, MOQ is typically 500 units. Non-standard requests are reviewed according to the actual configuration and packaging scope.
Yes. Sample arrangement can be discussed before bulk confirmation. Sample timing depends on model availability, configuration, and packaging scope.
For standard electric screwdriver programs based on existing tooling, lead time is typically 45 days from order confirmation. Final timing may vary depending on packaging scope, accessory configuration, and order structure.
For electric screwdriver programs, commonly requested compliance includes CE, RoHS, RCM, and selected ETL / UL-related requirements, depending on the model, charger configuration, and destination market. Final certification scope is confirmed per program before specifications are finalized.
Yes. Housing color, logo printing, retail box artwork, insert, accessory kit content, charger plug format, manual language, carton marks, and barcodes can all be customized according to program scope.
In many cases, packaging, charger format, accessory bundle, and branding details can be adjusted by market. Larger structural or internal changes should be confirmed separately.
Start with 4V if your main channel is retail or e-commerce and the goal is low-barrier sell-in — compact format, accessible price point, simple household use.
Choose 8V if you want a visible step-up from the entry tier without committing to a full 12V platform structure. The 8V program delivers improved torque and run time at a price band that still suits practical household and light installation channels.
Move to 12V or corded if your buyers expect stronger fastening performance, more continuous-use practicality, or distributor-grade positioning.
18V is most suitable when the screwdriver is being positioned within a broader cordless assortment or aligned to an existing 18V battery platform.
