Anyone know where I can get these. I lost the one I had and don't know where I got it from. It fitted in my little Wera ratchet or my Leatherman and saved me from carrying a separate key.
So that's all it is, a cabinet key (double bit) with a 1/4" hex end.

Thanks guys, have explored all those options before, have the Wera one and have beaten cut off key into a 1/4" socket etc etc.
Nothing only the one pictured will fit into my little set. I had one, I took the picture of the one above, so somebody somewhere makes one.

Do you have this set? It looks like this one?
Maybe RS can help?

I think you are exactly right m8. Thats the set and thats where I got it from, well done, I had forgotten.
Now the bad news, I really need two of them now, one to replace the one missing from my set above and one for my leatherman/wera set. Looks like I would have to pay 100 euros to get two of them by buying two Rs sets.
I am surprised that type of bit is not more common

Amazed at the price of that kit. There's one on eBay UK for over £100 GBP.
I imagine the company putting that tool on the market are buying in the cast bits from somewhere. If you could track down who/where the manufacturers are (RS won't be making it themselves, though it could be their spec.), you might stand a chance of finding a source of the bits!

Update - seems to be made by a German company called Cimco:
Cheaper from them:

Thanks m8, you have done some good searching. I would have thought a lot of sparkys would buy a tip like that for a few quid, so surprised there aren't more around, considering the amount of 1/4" hex bits made to suit various security screws that nobody has ever seen, while those cabinet type keys are common.
