    Fully color-coated for quick identification. Each key’s color corresponds to a specific drive size, so you can grab the key you need and get cranking. These L-keys are precision manufactured to tight tolerances. A ball tip on the long leg engages the drive with less contact than a straight tip to turn screws at an angle instead of head on. Ball tips are handy for corners and tightly packed areas, however, they don’t grip as tightly as straight tips and may strip the drive of the fastener if you crank them too hard.
    Alloy Steel—These L-keys handle high torque without bending or breaking, so they’ll last a lifetime.
    Extra Long—Reach deep fasteners with the extra-long leg on these L-keys. Flip them around and grip the long leg with two hands for extra leverage to loosen stubborn screws.

    Tighten or loosen nuts and bolts without damaging the finish. The tough steel core of the socket withstands the high torque of impact tools, but the insert and outer sleeve are made of plastic, which won’t scratch chrome plating and other coatings. Remove the outer sleeve for a thinner profile when working in tight spaces. Each size is a different color for easy identification.
