Wiha 01208 L-shaped hex key for metric fasteners, with a long arm length of 18.4 cm and a short arm of 3.8 cm. The tool is lightweight (50 g) and intended for tasks requiring extended reach or greater leverage. The blade is made of chrome-vanadium steel, through hardened and nickel-plated, and the product is manufactured to ISO 2936L standards.

Advantages

The chrome-vanadium steel blade is through hardened and nickel-plated for improved wear resistance and corrosion protection. The long-arm design (18.4 cm) provides increased leverage and access to recessed or hard-to-reach hex sockets while the short arm (3.8 cm) allows for compact operation in tight spaces. At approximately 50 g, the tool is easy to handle and transport.

How to use

Insert the appropriate end of the L-shaped hex key into the hex socket of the fastener. Use the long arm for increased leverage or to reach recessed screws; use the short arm for situations that require greater torque in confined spaces. Apply steady, controlled force to avoid rounding the fastener head and ensure the hex key is fully seated in the socket before turning.

Recommendations

For best results, select the correct metric size that matches the fastener, keep the tool clean and free of debris, and avoid excessive force that could damage the fastener or the tool. Store in a dry place to preserve the nickel-plated surface.
