SAE Ball Hex Key 7/8 in

The Eklind 18256 is a long-reach SAE hex key with a 7/8 in tip on both ends. It suits mechanics and technicians who need maximum leverage on large fasteners in deep or obstructed locations. The black oxide finish resists corrosion in workshop environments.

Sustained Torque Application

The 13 7/8 in long arm delivers high mechanical advantage for breaking loose seized bolts without cheater bars. HAWA material maintains hardness through repeated high-load cycles, reducing the risk of rounding fastener heads during extended jobs.

3 1/32 in Short Arm Clearance

The 3 1/32 in short arm determines whether the key fits into the tightest access points on the equipment being serviced. If that clearance exceeds the available space, the tool cannot engage the fastener at all.

Questions about this item

Does the 13 7/8 in long arm give enough leverage for all-day use without heating my hand?

The 13 7/8 in long arm provides strong mechanical leverage so you apply less force, keeping hand fatigue and heat build-up low during extended work.

What else must I already own for this SAE hex key to work?

You need SAE fasteners with a 7/8 in hex recess; the key fits those directly and requires no power source or adapter.

Will the black oxide finish hold up when I use this key alongside older chrome tools?

Yes, the black oxide coating is corrosion resistant and will not degrade from contact with older chrome or plated tools in the same toolbox.
