FAQs

Is this tool suitable for metric bolts?

No, this is an imperial tool designed specifically for 1-inch AF fasteners. Using it on metric sizes can damage both the tool and the fastener.

Can I use an extension bar for more torque?

Facom tools are designed to handle significant force, but using cheater bars can exceed the design tolerances and lead to tool failure.

How do I clean the chrome finish?

A simple wipe-down with a clean, lint-free cloth after each use is usually sufficient. Avoid abrasive pads that can scratch the protective chrome.

What does OGV stand for in the product name?

OGV refers to the Facom-patented profile that optimizes contact area between the wrench and the fastener, ensuring power is applied to the flats of the nut.

Is this wrench covered by a warranty?

Facom products are typically manufactured to high industrial standards; please refer to your local distributor or the official Facom documentation for specific regional warranty terms.

Troubleshooting

Wrench feels loose on the fastener

Ensure the fastener is exactly 1 inch AF; verify that no debris or paint is buildup inside the nut head.

Surface starting to show signs of oxidation

Clean the surface with a light solvent, wipe dry, and apply a very thin coat of machine oil before storage.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enhanced grip prevents slippage on fasteners
  • High-quality, long-lasting construction
  • Excellent reach for tight or recessed spaces
  • Easy-to-clean chrome finish

Cons

  • Specific to 1-inch imperial sizing only
  • Professional grade requires proper maintenance to avoid oxidation
  • May require additional tools for larger fastener arrays

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This wrench is a fixed-size tool intended for 1-inch (AF) imperial fasteners. No setup is required; simply match the tool size to the fastener. To maintain the life of your Facom wrench, avoid using the tool with cheater bars or extensions, as this can cause structural damage. After working in oily or greasy conditions, wipe the tool with a dry, clean cloth. Store the wrench in a dry toolbox or on a wall rack to prevent environmental corrosion. Periodically check the open-end jaws for any signs of spreading or wear, especially if used frequently in high-torque applications.
