Paramount PAR17511 Hex Key 7/32 Inch Ball End Long Arm

Product Description

The PARAMOUNT PAR17511 is a 7/32 inch ball-end hex key with a long arm design, built for professional use in tight or angled fastening applications. Constructed from steel, it delivers the durability required for repeated use in the field. The ball-end tip allows up to 30 degrees of offset driving, which is useful when direct inline access to a fastener is restricted. The long arm measures 4-7/8 inches overall, providing extended reach and greater torque leverage compared to standard-length keys. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, electricians, and general trade professionals who regularly service equipment fastened with hex socket screws will find this tool appropriate for their toolbox.

This hex key is suited for residential and light commercial service work where 7/32 inch hex fasteners are common. Typical applications include equipment panel removal, access cover fasteners, valve packing nuts, and mechanical equipment assembly or disassembly tasks. The long arm configuration makes it particularly useful when working inside equipment cabinets or enclosures where a short-arm key would not provide adequate leverage or clearance.

Installation Notes

This tool is used by trade professionals servicing mechanical equipment with hex socket fasteners. Before servicing any equipment, de-energize electrical systems and shut off applicable fluid or gas supplies in accordance with local codes and manufacturer guidelines. Use the straight end for maximum torque on tight fasteners and the ball end for angled access. Do not use extension pipes or adapters on the key arm, as this can exceed the tool rating and cause fastener or tool damage.
