    Turn screws at an angle when you can’t access them head on. These L-keys have a ball tip on the long leg that engages the drive with less contact than a straight tip. Ball tips are handy for corners and tightly packed areas, such as control panels and junction boxes. However, they don’t grip as tightly as straight tips and may strip the drive of the fastener if you crank them too hard. These L-keys are precision manufactured to tight tolerances.

    Alloy SteelThese L-keys handle high torque without bending or breaking, so they’ll last a lifetime.

    LongThe most common option, these L-keys have a balanced length for everyday reach and torque.
