The Wiha 00917 T-handle hex key is a single-piece tool designed for metric hex fasteners. The blade is made of through-hardened, nickel-plated chrome-vanadium steel and is fitted with a Wiha Classic T-handle for comfortable grip and effective torque transfer. The tool features a long arm of 18.2 cm and a short arm of 10 cm, and its low weight (66 g) makes it suitable for repeated use while maintaining durability and precision.

Advantages

The chrome-vanadium blade is through-hardened and nickel-plated for wear resistance and corrosion protection. The one-piece construction ensures stability under load, and the Wiha Classic T-handle provides ergonomic grip for high torque transfer with minimal effort. The combination of a long and a short arm offers flexibility for different working positions and improved leverage.

How to use

Choose the hex key size that matches the fastener and insert the short or long arm into the hex socket depending on the required reach and leverage. Grip the T-handle with one or both hands to apply torque; use the long arm for greater reach and the short arm when more torque or clearance is needed. Apply steady force and avoid sudden impacts to protect the tool and the fastener.

Recommendations

Use the Wiha T-handle hex key for metric fasteners only, keep the tool clean and dry after use, and store it in a tool rack or pouch to prevent corrosion. Do not use the hex key as a pry bar or hammer to avoid damaging the blade or handle.
