How should I clean and maintain the keys?

Wipe them clean with a dry cloth after use and store them in the provided plastic holder. Avoid exposure to moisture.

Is this set suitable for professional mechanics?

Troubleshooting

Key does not fit Torx screw securely

Verify that you are using the correct size key for the screw. Ensure the screw head is clean and free from debris. Confirm the screw is indeed a Torx type and not a different fastener.

Key feels like it might strip the screw head

Apply firm, steady pressure. Ensure the key is fully seated in the screw head. If the screw is seized or excessively tight, consider using a penetrating lubricant and allow it time to work before applying more force.

Key shows signs of wear or damage

Discontinue use immediately to prevent further damage to the fastener or potential injury. Assess if the damage is due to excessive force or material defect. For a damaged key, replacement is recommended.
