Instructions for use

To preserve the screw profile and ensure effective tightening, it is recommended to use this key only on compatible 3 mm hex screws. Insert the end correctly into the profile before applying rotational force. For very tight screws, preferably start with the short side or the most stable axis depending on the working position. The ball end is particularly practical for engaging the screw in less accessible areas, but alignment that is as straight as possible is still recommended for optimal tightening torque.

For a longer service life, it is advisable to store the tool in a dry and clean place after use. In both professional and domestic settings, this long hex key is an essential accessory for any well-equipped toolbox.
