Are replacements for the Centrotec 0.8x5.5 flat head bit available in US?

[RonMiller]

Today the tip of my Centrotec 0.8x5.5 flat head drive bit broke in half - my son was using it on a particularly stubborn screw with the hand driver and it's history. After looking at a few seller's sites, it appears this is NAINA. Can anyone confirm this? If it helps, it's the smallest flat head longer bit driver in the installer's kit that I think is now sold out.

I might be wrong, but I think that Shane posted a while back that replacement tips would be available.  Why don't you send him a PM or email.

I'm in the same boat, except my screw wasn't even a stubborn one!
Pretty disappointed, I thought the bits would last at least as long as the cheap Chinese ones I've had for a long while... [unsure]

Well Shane let me know that these parts are going to be available through dealers here in the US. There was a post about it yesterday, so my timing is great anyway. Not sure when they'll be available to order, but hopefully soon.

My Centrotec slot head broke too. Was driving it by hand as well. Was pretty bummed when I realized these were NAINA but obviously pleased that they have arrived here. Seems these should only see very light duty.
