Air Drilll Bits Query

[topconker]

Daft question probably, but I've inherited an air drill and like to get some bits for it.
I have no idea what they are called, can someone help.
Here's a couple of pics f the one that was in the drill.

Drill bit

Torx t25 bit. Similar to an allen key, designed to give extra torque when tightening bolts.

Thanks Bloke,
What's the name of the fitting that locks into the air drill itself?

Is it an air drill or air driver? They can be confusing if you don't know the difference, drills generally have chucks. The 1/4" hex drive bit you posted a photo of has an undercut for quick release, the "Snappy" type is explained here.

Hi Wallace, it's the driver I have.
Thanks for the explanation, it makes sense now.
Cheers,

Bloody handy tool, especially if it's reversible.

Hi Pete, yep it is.
