Hex key (inch) Bondhus 5/64" length 48 mm, model BO13804

Bondhus 5/64" inch hex key, model BO13804, is an L-shaped hex wrench with a length of 48 mm designed for driving and tightening inch-threaded fasteners. Its compact 48 mm size provides access in confined areas where a standard tool cannot reach. The tool is intended for use with 5/64" hex fittings found in assembly, repair, and maintenance of machinery, electronics, and furniture.

Advantages

The hex key's L-shaped design offers leverage and reach in a single tool, allowing both torque application and access to tight spaces. The 48 mm length balances accessibility and control for small fasteners. Compatibility with 5/64" hex fittings ensures proper fit and reduces the risk of rounding heads when compared to mismatched tools.

Suitable for

• Assembly and disassembly of machinery components using 5/64" fasteners
• Electronics repair and adjustments where compact tools are required
• Furniture assembly and maintenance involving inch hex fittings
• Maintenance tasks in confined or hard-to-reach locations

Key specifications

• Size: 5/64 inch hex
• Shape: L-shaped (short and long arm)
• Overall length: 48 mm
• Use: For inch-thread hex fasteners

How to use

Insert the appropriate end of the L-shaped hex key into the 5/64" hex socket of the fastener. Use the short arm for higher torque and the long arm for reach and access. Turn clockwise to tighten and counterclockwise to loosen. Ensure the key is fully seated in the fastener before applying force to avoid stripping.

Usage recommendations

Use the short arm when greater torque is required and the long arm when extended reach is needed. Keep the hex key clean and free from debris; inspect the tip for wear before use and replace if deformed to maintain proper engagement with fasteners.
