US PRO Tools 5pc Pick And Hook Set - 100 - 305mm

The set includes picks and hooks with shaft lengths of 100mm, 127mm, and 305mm. Bend angles include 75-degree, 90-degree, and 135-degree, with various combinations of length and bend.

The shafts are made from heat-treated, chrome-plated steel for enhanced strength and durability.

Yes, it is suitable for removing small components like seals, O-rings, and clips often found around engines, but not for heavy-duty leverage on larger parts.

Wipe clean with a dry cloth after use. For tougher grime, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap, then dry completely. Store in a dry place to prevent rust.

While the tools themselves are straightforward to use, mastering their application for delicate tasks may require some practice. Beginners can start with less critical applications to build confidence.

The different bend angles (75, 90, 135 degrees) allow you to maneuver the tool around obstructions and access components from various angles, which is crucial in tight engine compartments or under dashboards.

Yes, the sharp points and hooks are effective for scraping and lifting away old, hardened gasket material from mating surfaces.

Ensure you are using the appropriate pick or hook for the task and not applying excessive force beyond the tool's intended use. These tools are for precision manipulation, not heavy prying.

For very small or slippery parts, consider using the finest point pick or a hook with a tighter radius to gain purchase. Clean the part and the tool tip for better adhesion.

Ensure tools are dried thoroughly after cleaning and stored in a dry environment. If minor rust appears, use a fine-grit sandpaper or steel wool to gently remove it, then apply a light coating of oil.

Select a longer pick or hook from the set, or utilize one of the tools with a more extreme bend (e.g., 135-degree) to access deeper or more awkwardly positioned parts.
