Hex Pin Key Set Beta Tools BE96BP/SC9, 9-piece 1.5–10 mm

Beta Tools BE96BP/SC9 is a 9-piece hex pin key set covering sizes from 1.5 mm to 10 mm. The set is intended for driving, extracting and aligning pins, springs and dowels in mechanical assemblies. Each pin key is formed to provide a precise fit in hex-shaped locating holes and to withstand workshop use in automotive, industrial maintenance and assembly applications.

Advantages

The set offers a compact range of nine hex pin sizes that covers common small and medium pin diameters. Individual pins are shaped for accurate engagement and reduced risk of rounding or slippage. The tools are organised to allow quick selection and handling during repetitive operations, supporting efficient pin driving and extraction in confined spaces. Compatibility with typical workshop procedures and parts makes the set suitable for routine maintenance tasks.

Suitable for

• Driving and removing roll pins, spring pins and dowels
• Automotive repair and engine assembly work
• Machinery maintenance and fitting operations
• Assembly and disassembly of mechanical linkages and fixtures
• Working in confined or recessed pin locations

Key specifications

• Number of pieces: 9
• Size range: 1.5 mm, 2 mm, 2.5 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, 8 mm, 10 mm
• Tool type: hex-shaped pin (drift) keys
• Intended use: driving, extracting and aligning pins, springs and dowels
• Typical applications: automotive, industrial maintenance, mechanical assembly

How to use

Select the pin key that matches the internal hex dimension of the pin or locating hole. Insert the pin key straight into the hex recess and apply controlled force with a hammer or press to drive the pin out or into position. For extraction, use a guided punch technique to avoid tilting or damaging the pin and surrounding components. Keep alignment during the operation and support the workpiece to prevent movement and ensure safe, accurate insertion or removal.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment, such as safety glasses and gloves, and apply force gradually to avoid overstressing pins or adjacent parts. Store the set in its organiser to protect individual keys from damage and to maintain quick access. If a pin shows signs of corrosion or distortion, evaluate replacement rather than reuse to preserve assembly integrity.
