Paramount PAR17505 Ball End Hex Key 3/32 Inch Long Arm

Product Description

The PARAMOUNT PAR17505 is a ball end hex key designed for fastener-driving applications where straight-on access is restricted. Built with a long arm configuration and a 3/32 inch hex drive, this key accepts angled engagement up to approximately 25 degrees thanks to the ball end tip. The overall length is 3-3/8 inches, keeping it compact enough for tight compartments while providing adequate torque leverage for standard hex fasteners. Constructed from steel throughout, it is suited for repeated use in mechanical, HVAC, pool equipment, and general trade service work. This is a single-piece tool sold in minimum order quantities of 10 units.

The PAR17505 is used wherever 3/32 inch socket head cap screws or set screws need to be driven or removed and direct axial access is unavailable. Common applications include servicing pump assemblies, valve actuators, fan blade set screws, motor mounting hardware, and other mechanical components found in HVAC, plumbing, pool, and light industrial settings. The long arm style concentrates torque input at the short arm, making it practical for initial fastener seating and high-resistance removal tasks.

Compatibility

Designed for use with 3/32 inch hex socket head fasteners in mechanical and trade service applications.

Installation Notes

This tool is used by HVAC technicians, plumbers, pool service professionals, and general mechanical trades. Before driving or removing set screws on rotating components such as fan blades or pump impellers, ensure the system is fully de-energized and locked out. Use the short arm for driving torque and the long arm for low-resistance spin-down to reduce wrist fatigue. Inspect the ball end for deformation before use on precision fasteners.
