Stainless steel and integrated swivel – a duo that defines a new standard
IBOMBO has been setting the direction of development in the field of public bike repair stations for years, providing solutions that combine durability and functional design. Today, we present another innovation that once again raises the standard of use – stainless steel screwdrivers with an integrated swivel.
This new solution, currently under global patent application (PATENT PENDING), has been developed with a focus on maximum ergonomics, weather resistance, and vandalism protection – addressing all the key factors essential for the use of publicly accessible tools.
How does the IBOMBO swivel work?
Traditional screwdrivers used in public stations often cause problems for users – their securing cables twist, tangle, or limit freedom of movement, even when a double-sided swivel is used on a round loop. IBOMBO has developed a technology that completely eliminates this issue. The single-sided, integrated swivel allows the screwdriver to rotate fully and smoothly, while the cable remains in a fixed position. As a result, the tool operates lightly and intuitively, making work at the repair station more comfortable and precise.
The core of the solution is the integrated pin with a securing sleeve (the so-called breakaway nut), which permanently connects the swivel to the tool. This ensures that the connection is resistant to damage, attempts to unscrew, or theft, while still allowing free rotation and high user comfort. It’s a combination of ergonomics and durability – qualities that define the IBOMBO standard of quality.
Durability, ergonomics, and resistance to external conditions.
The new IBOMBO screwdrivers are made of high-quality AISI 420/AISI 304 stainless steel, known for its resistance to corrosion, wear, and external factors. Regardless of the weather – whether it’s rain, snow, frost, or intense sun – the tools maintain full functionality and aesthetic appeal. They are designed to serve for many years in public outdoor spaces without the need for frequent maintenance.
Each screwdriver features clear premium markings: the embossed IBOMBO logo, production batch number, and the inscription “FOR BIKE REPAIR STATION USE ONLY,” which clearly indicates its intended use. This is not only an aesthetic element but also an effective way to identify and protect the tool from unauthorized use.
A new standard at every IBOMBO station.
From now on, screwdrivers with integrated swivels are standard equipment at all new IBOMBO stations. This means that every new installation offers users an even higher level of comfort, durability, and functionality, as well as better protection against damage, theft, and weather conditions. This solution is exclusively available at IBOMBO stations, emphasizing its unique character and the brand’s position as an innovation leader in its industry.
