Combination wrench KS Tools 517.0610, 10 mm, chrome‑vanadium, 140 mm length

KS Tools 517.0610 is a single 10 mm combination wrench crafted from chrome‑vanadium steel with a metallic finish. At 140 mm overall length and approximately 40 g weight, the tool integrates an open-end and a 12‑point box-end in one compact profile. The box-end provides full contact on hex fasteners while the open-end allows quick engagement in confined positions, making the wrench suitable for a wide range of tightening and loosening operations in automotive, mechanical and general maintenance environments.

Advantages

The chrome‑vanadium construction ensures a balance of strength and wear resistance, while the metallic finish offers basic corrosion protection and easy cleaning. The 10 mm size paired with a 140 mm length provides improved access to recessed fasteners compared with shorter wrenches, and the combination of open and box ends reduces the need to switch tools during repetitive work. The compact weight and length make the wrench convenient to carry in tool rolls, pockets or compact toolsets.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and servicing where 10 mm fasteners are common
• Mechanical assembly and maintenance in workshops and production lines
• General household and equipment maintenance tasks requiring a compact wrench
• Field service and mobile toolkits that require lightweight, durable hand tools

Key specifications

• Size: 10 mm
• Material: chrome‑vanadium steel
• Finish: metallic (polished) finish for corrosion resistance
• Overall length: 140 mm
• Weight: approximately 40 g
• Ends: open-end and 12‑point box-end combination

How to use

Position the appropriate end of the wrench on the fastener, ensuring full seating of the box-end for maximum contact and reduced rounding, or use the open-end for quick engagement where clearance is limited. Apply steady torque in the intended direction, keeping the wrench aligned with the fastener axis to avoid slipping. For stubborn or overtightened fasteners, use controlled force and consider supporting the workpiece to prevent damage. Inspect the wrench for wear or deformation before use.

Recommendations

Use the box-end whenever possible for higher torque and better distribution of load over the fastener faces. Avoid using cheater bars or extensions on the wrench to prevent tool damage. Store the tool in a dry environment and clean after use to maintain the metallic finish and extend service life.
