Frequently Asked Questions

Which hex key set should I choose?

For general workshop and assembly work, the 9 or 10 Piece Hexagon Allen Key Sets cover a broad spread of metric sizes. If you need to carry keys with you, the 7 Piece Folding Hexagon Allen Key Set is more compact. For deeper fixings, choose a long set.

When should I use a ball-end hex key?

Ball-end keys are best for awkward access, where you cannot get the key square-on to the fastener. They are ideal for quickly running fasteners in and out at an angle. For final tightening or breaking loose a stubborn fixing, use the straight end of the key where possible.

What is the difference between Torx and Resistorx keys?

Torx keys fit standard star-shaped fasteners. Resistorx keys are made for tamper-resistant fasteners, which have a pin in the centre of the recess. Check the fastener before buying, as the correct key is needed for a secure fit.

Are imperial hex keys available?

Yes. The 8 Piece Long Ball End Hexagon Allen Key Set Imperial suits imperial fasteners often found on older or imported machinery. The other single keys and sets in the range are metric, so check your fastener size before ordering from Tooled-Up.
