The long arm of each key features a ball-end design which allows off angle screws to be accessed when working even in confined spaces. The holding function securely holds screws, thanks to a clamping effect achieved by a flexible locking ball. The BlackLaser surface and high corrosion protection offer a long service life, with the round bar design adding further strength and robustness - particularly where the smaller sizes are concerned. The "Take it Easy Toolfinder" with colour coding according to size allows simple selection. This makes them ideal for use in tight assembly or disassembly situations where it is not possible to hold the screw in position by hand. Wera Hex Plus allen keys use a head geometry that guarantees longer life for both screws and tools, whilst providing increased torque. This is achieved by the hex key having increased surface contact with the screw, which reduces the notching effect inside the socket. A ball-shaped head at one end provides the flexibility for "off angle" applications. The shaft of the keys is round and covered with an ergonomic rubber sleeve for increased comfort while in use, even when working at low temperatures, and each size is colour coded for ease of identification. The holding function on the long arm of the hex keys is achieved by this ball-end having a flexible locking ball.
