Hex Allen Bits

Description

Hex Allen drive bits are designed for hexagonal (Allen) screws, which are commonly used in applications requiring high torque and secure fastening. These bits provide a strong, slip-resistant grip and are widely used in various industries.

Key Features:

✅ Sizes: Metric (H1, H2, H2.5, H3, H4, H5, H6, H8, H10) & Imperial (1/16″, 5/64″, 3/32″, 1/8″, 5/32″, 3/16″, 1/4″, 5/16″, 3/8″)
✅ Material: Hardened steel, S2 steel, chrome vanadium (Cr-V), or impact-resistant alloys
✅ Coatings: Black oxide, titanium, diamond-coated for extra durability and corrosion resistance
✅ Types:

• Standard Hex: For general use
• Ball-End Hex: Allows fastening at an angle (useful for hard-to-reach areas)
• Impact-rated Hex: Reinforced for high-torque impact drivers
• Long-reach Hex: Extended length for deep-set screws

Common Applications:

🔧 Bicycles & Motorcycles (brake systems, handlebars, pedals)
🚗 Automotive & Machinery (engine components, assembly work)
🛠️ Furniture & Carpentry (IKEA furniture, cabinetry, shelving)
🏗️ Construction (fastening metal structures, electrical installations)
💻 Electronics & Appliances (laptops, power tools, industrial equipment)

💡 Tip: Ball-end hex bits are great for tight spaces but should not be used for high-torque applications, as they reduce surface contact with the screw head.
