Hand Tool AWTools AW18060 — manual tool, weight 980 g

AWTools AW18060 is a manual hand tool designed for general-purpose tasks in workshops, construction sites and home maintenance. The tool is made of carbon tool steel, drop forged, hardened and tempered for durability. With a satin finish to reduce slippage and a weight of 980 g, it offers a mid-weight balance that facilitates handling, transport and storage. The design includes a hexagonal shape at one or both ends and holes along the shaft for inserting a T-bar, while individual sizes connect to reach confined spaces. A roll-up pouch with riveted eyelets is included for compact storage and easy transportation.

Advantages

The combination of carbon tool steel construction and drop forging with heat treatment provides strength and wear resistance for repeated use. The satin finish improves grip and reduces surface glare, helping to maintain secure handling. Hexagonal ends and through-shaft holes for a T-bar increase leverage options, and connecting sizes expand reach into hard-to-access areas. The roll-up pouch protects the set and simplifies organization and transport.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and servicing
• Plumbing installation and maintenance
• General building and maintenance tasks
• Workshop and hobby mechanical work

Key specifications

• Material: carbon tool steel (CS)
• Manufacturing: drop forged, hardened and tempered
• Surface finish: satin finish to reduce slippage
• Weight: 980 g (single tool weight as specified)
• Design features: hexagonal ends, holes along shaft for T-bar insertion
• Interconnectivity: sizes connect together to extend reach
• Storage: roll-up pouch with riveted eyelets for secure transport

How to use

Select the size of the tool required for the task and, where additional leverage is needed, insert a T-bar through the holes in the shaft. For access to confined or recessed fasteners, connect compatible sizes to extend the reach. Use the hexagonal ends to engage nuts, bolts or fittings appropriate to the tool profile, applying controlled force consistent with the tool's mechanical limits. After use, clean debris from the tool, dry it and store it in the supplied roll-up pouch to protect the finish and maintain organization.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the tool periodically for wear, damage or corrosion, especially at the hexagonal ends and through-shaft holes. Use appropriate hand protection when working with oily or hot components and avoid excessive force that could deform the hex profile or damage fasteners. Store the tool in the provided roll-up pouch to prevent contact with corrosive substances and to keep paired sizes together for easy selection.
