Eklind Tool Co 14616 Long Hex L Key 8.0mm

Product Description

The EKLIND TOOL CO 14616 is an 8.0mm long-arm hex L key designed to drive internal hexagon socket fasteners, commonly called Allen head fasteners. The long arm measures 6.2 inches and the short arm measures 1.38 inches, giving technicians reach advantage in tight or deep cavities. The tool is manufactured from Eklind Alloy Steel that has been heat treated, quenched, and tempered to optimize strength, torque output, and ductility. A rust-resistant finish protects the tool in shop and field environments. This is a hand tool used across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical trades wherever metric hex fasteners are specified.

The 14616 is suited for professional tradespeople and service technicians who regularly encounter 8.0mm metric hex fasteners on equipment panels, motor mounts, valve assemblies, and mechanical components. The long arm provides added torque leverage, while the short arm allows access in confined spaces. It is sold individually (unit of measure: EA) and is available in package quantities of 6, making it practical for stocking a service van or tool crib.

Compatibility

Designed for use with any 8.0mm internal hexagon socket fastener across HVAC equipment, plumbing fixtures, electrical enclosures, and general mechanical assemblies where metric hex drive is required.

Installation Notes

This tool is used by licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and mechanical trades professionals. Before servicing any equipment, de-energize electrical systems and shut off fluid supply as required by applicable codes. Use the long arm for initial loosening or final tightening where torque is needed, and switch to the short arm for rapid turning in accessible locations. Inspect the tool for wear or rounding before applying high torque to avoid fastener damage.
