Bondhus BD15816 1/2" Short Hex end L-Wrench
Available
These are Bondhus short hex end L-wrenches sold one size at a time, in larger inch sizes from 7/16" to 3/4". They suit maintenance fitters, machine assemblers and mechanics who need a single plain hex key for bigger hex socket screws.
Bigger sizes have longer arms: the 7/16" key is 4.8" (121mm) long and the 3/4" key is 7.3" (184mm) long. Pick the size that matches your hex socket screw. A hex end key has a flat, six-sided tip with no ball. The chamfered tip helps it seat in the screw head, and the sharp corners transfer more torque and reduce stripping. At 3/4" the short key is 184mm (7.3") long against 286mm (11.3") for the long series, so choose the long series when you need more reach.
