L-shaped hex key Wiha 01214 Metric 1 pc long arm 33.3 cm

Wiha 01214 L-shaped hex key is a metric hex key with a long arm of 33.3 cm and a short arm of 8 cm, designed for precision fastening tasks. The single-piece tool weighs 745 g and provides extended reach and leverage for tightening and loosening fasteners in confined or deep-set locations. The blade is made of chrome-vanadium steel, through-hardened and nickel-plated for corrosion resistance and durable edges. The tool conforms to ISO 2936L.

Advantages

The long-arm design offers increased torque and access to recessed fasteners while the short arm provides control in tight spaces. Chrome-vanadium construction with through-hardening improves strength and wear resistance, and the nickel plating helps protect the surface from corrosion. Conformance to ISO 2936L ensures consistent dimensions and fit with standard metric fasteners.

How to use

Select the correctly sized metric hex key for the fastener. Insert the short or long arm into the hex socket depending on access and required leverage. Use the long arm for extended reach and higher torque, and the short arm for controlled turning in confined spaces. Apply steady force, avoiding excessive bending or leverage beyond the tool's intended use.

Recommendations

Inspect the blade and nickel finish before use; replace the tool if edges are rounded or the shaft is damaged. Store in a dry place to preserve the nickel plating and prevent corrosion. Use appropriate personal protective equipment when applying high torque.
