Product Information

Full details

The Facom 34.5/8 is a precision-engineered miniature offset open-end spanner designed specifically for mechanics and technicians working with small fasteners in highly confined spaces. Providing exceptional access where standard wrenches fail, this 5/8-inch tool ensures torque application in tight assemblies, though its compact size limits its use to smaller hardware not intended for extreme heavy-duty leverage.

FAQs

What is the total length of the Facom 34.5/8?

The total length is 140mm.

Does this wrench have different angles on each end?

Yes, it features a 15-degree angle on one end and a 75-degree angle on the other.

Can I use this for heavy-duty vehicle suspension work?

No, this is a midget spanner designed for precision and small fasteners; it is not intended for high-torque or heavy-duty structural applications.

How should I clean the satin chrome finish?

Simply wipe it down with a clean, dry cloth after use. If it is covered in oil, use a mild degreaser and wipe dry.

Is this tool suitable for electrical work?

While the steel construction is durable, this tool is not insulated; it should not be used on live electrical circuits.

What does the 34.5/8 model number represent?

The 34 series is the Facom line of midget offset spanners, and the 5/8 denotes the 5/8-inch opening size.

Troubleshooting

Tool slips off the fastener

Verify that the fastener size matches the 5/8-inch head; ensure the jaw is fully seated on the fastener flats.

Surface oxidation or staining

Clean the surface with a non-abrasive degreaser and a microfiber cloth; dry thoroughly and apply a light coating of machine oil for protection.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent accessibility in restricted areas
  • Dual-angle head options for better maneuverability
  • High-quality satin chrome finish resists corrosion
  • Compact 140mm length for easy portability

Cons

  • Not suitable for high-torque heavy-duty tasks
  • Small handle length limits leverage
  • Single-size tool requires a full set for varied hardware

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This wrench requires no setup—it is a standalone hand tool. It is compatible with standard 5/8-inch fasteners. To maintain the integrity of the tool, wipe the spanner with a clean rag after use to remove chemical residues. Avoid using the wrench as a prying tool, as the compact size is specifically tempered for turning fasteners and may deform if subjected to excessive side-loading or leverage extensions. Store in a dry environment or a standard tool roll to prevent surface scratches.
