Facom Slim Metric Combination Spanner - 7mm

OGV stands for 'Profilé à grand dégagement' (high-clearance profile). It refers to the specific 12-point ring profile designed to increase contact with the nut, providing better torque transfer and reducing the risk of slipping compared to standard 6-point profiles.

The 15-degree offset on the ring end provides clearance for your fingers, allowing for safer and more comfortable work, especially on flat surfaces where a straight wrench might cause knuckle injuries.

While the OGV profile enhances torque transfer, this is a slim spanner designed for access. For very high-torque applications, a larger or more specialized wrench might be more appropriate to avoid stressing the tool.

The slim design allows the spanner to access fasteners in tight or confined spaces where bulkier wrenches would not fit, making it ideal for intricate mechanical work.

The matt chrome finish provides excellent resistance to corrosion and wear, helping to maintain the tool's appearance and functionality over time.

This is a metric spanner designed for 7mm fasteners. Using it on imperial sizes is not recommended as it can lead to poor fit, damage to the fastener, and potential injury.

Clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth and store in a dry place. Avoid harsh chemicals. Regular inspection ensures optimal performance and safety.

Ensure you are using the correct size spanner (7mm) and that both the spanner's OGV profile and the fastener head are clean and free from debris. Apply steady, even pressure.

Utilize the 15-degree offset handle and ring end to gain better leverage and access. Re-position the wrench with minimal movement in confined spaces.

Clean the affected area with a soft cloth and a light application of oil. Ensure the tool is dried thoroughly and stored in a dry location. For persistent corrosion, consult the manufacturer's recommendations.
