Bernstein Socket Wrench - 5.5mm

A dissipative handle is made of materials that safely conduct static electricity away from the user and the work area, preventing electrostatic discharge (ESD) that could damage sensitive electronic components.

While durable, this wrench is specifically optimized for precision electronics work with its 5.5mm size and ESD properties. For general mechanical repairs, a broader set of tools may be more appropriate.

The dissipative properties are inherent to the material. Regular cleaning with a dry cloth and avoiding damage to the handle will help maintain its integrity. If the handle becomes visibly damaged or contaminated, its protective qualities may be compromised.

No, using the wrench on fasteners of incorrect size can damage both the tool and the fastener, leading to poor performance and potential component damage.

Please refer to the product packaging or Bernstein's official website for specific warranty information, as it can vary by region and retailer.

The swivel top allows for rapid rotation of the fastener with minimal movement of the user's hand or wrist, significantly increasing efficiency and comfort, especially in confined spaces.

The black tip is a visual aid, often achieved through a coating or finish, that can improve visibility on certain fastener heads, aiding in precise engagement.

Ensure the fastener is precisely 5.5mm and hexagonal. This wrench is not designed for other sizes or shapes.

Clean the handle gently with a dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid chemical cleaners. If damage is suspected, the tool may need replacement for ESD-critical work.

Inspect the chrome plating and tip for damage. Continued use with a damaged blade can strip fasteners. Consider replacement if functionality is compromised.

Gently clean the swivel mechanism with a dry cloth. Avoid applying lubricants, as they can attract dust and interfere with ESD properties. If stiffness persists, professional inspection may be needed.
