9/64 Inch Flat End Hex L-Key

Tekton keys also have slightly chamfered edges except the sizes that are too small to be chamfered and a smooth top face to optimize engagement with fasteners.•Tight Fit with Fasteners – In order to create a reliable, tight fit with fasteners, our L-keys are slightly larger in size with narrower tolerances than most competitors that follow the ASME standards•Two Measures of Tolerance Control – We measure our hex key tolerances from point-to-point and side-to-side to ensure the highest standards of dimensional accuracy and consistency•8660 Steel – We make our L-keys with 8660 nickel chromium molybdenum steel that's heat-treated to 54–58 HRC to produce tools that are hard, but not brittle•Corrosion-Resistant Finish – We coat all of our keys with a durable manganese phosphate finish that's resistant to corrosion•Clear Markings – With the exception of the smallest sizes, Tekton L-key sizes are marked in two ways: with a high-visibility laser marking and a stamped marking (sizes 0.050 in., 1/16 in., 5/64 in., 1.3 mm, 1.5 mm, and 2 mm are too small to stamp) Tekton L-keys are made with 8660 nickel chromium molybdenum steel that's heat-treated to 5458 HRC to produce tools that are hard, but not brittle. As a result, the maximum torque of the L-keys consistently exceeds the ASME standards for minimum torsion load and the ISO standards for minimum proof torque. The key tolerances are measured in two ways, from point-to-point and side-to-side, to ensure the highest standards of dimensional accuracy and consistency. With the exception of the smallest sizes, Tekton L-key sizes are marked in two waysboth with a high-visibility laser marking and a stamped marking. The keys are coated with a durable manganese phosphate finish that's resistant to corrosion. We precisely manufacture our hex key geometry on the large end of the applicable range, resulting in less slop in fasteners.
