FAQs

What sizes are included in the set?

The set includes 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14mm spanners.

What is the purpose of the 72-tooth mechanism?

The 72-tooth mechanism provides high mechanical performance in a compact design, enabling smooth and efficient operation.

What does OGV profile mean?

OGV profile maximizes contact between the spanner and the nut/bolt to preserve fasteners and reduce the risk of rounding them.

What is the benefit of the 15° offset?

The 15° offset allows for better maneuverability and helps you avoid obstacles.

How should I store the spanners?

Store the spanners in a clean and dry place, preferably in the provided case, to protect them from damage and corrosion.

Can I use this set for heavy-duty applications?

While the set is durable, the short handle and compact design are best suited for applications where space is limited. Consider using tools with longer handles for heavy-duty applications.

What should I do if the ratchet mechanism slips?

Check for debris and clean the spanner. If the issue continues, professional repair or replacement might be needed.

Troubleshooting

Ratchet mechanism slips.

Check for debris in the mechanism and clean the spanner. If the issue persists, the mechanism may be worn and require professional repair or replacement.

Spanner doesn't fit the nut/bolt properly.

Ensure you are using the correct metric size. Check for any damage to the spanner or the fastener.
