    With a stubby leg that's up to 50% shorter than others, these L-keys squeeze into spots with low overhead clearance, such as engine compartments. A ball tip on one or both ends engages the drive with less contact than a straight tip, so you can turn screws at an angle instead of head on. Ball tips don't grip as tightly as straight tips, however, and may strip the drive of the fastener if you crank them too hard.
    Black Phosphate-Coated Steel—Paint adheres evenly to the surface of these L-keys, so you can add your own finish. The dark, matte coating resists rust in most wet and outdoor applications. However, it won't hold up to salt water and chemicals.
    Chrome-Plated Steel—The chrome plating resists salt water and chemicals better than gold and black phosphate and is less likely to wear off. These L-keys have the brightest, shiniest finish we offer to stand out in your tool box.

    Fasten a variety of screw sizes in compact machinery where overhead clearance is minimal. These L-keys have a stubby leg that's up to 50% shorter than others to squeeze into extremely tight spaces. They also have a ball tip on one or both ends that engages the drive with less contact than a straight tip, so you can turn screws at an angle instead of head on. Ball tips don't grip as tightly as straight tips, however, and may strip the drive of the fastener if you crank them too hard.
    Black Phosphate-Coated Steel—Paint adheres evenly to the surface of these L-keys, so you can add your own finish. The dark, matte coating resists rust in most wet and outdoor applications. However, it won't hold up to salt water and chemicals.
    Chrome-Plated Steel—The chrome plating resists salt water and chemicals better than gold and black phosphate and is less likely to wear off. These L-keys have the brightest, shiniest finish we offer to stand out in your tool box.

    When working in tight spaces, these short drivers fit where others can't. Bits have a different tip at each end and snap into the shaft. A ball detent holds the bit in place. To use as nutdriver, remove the bit and turn fasteners with the shaft, which is also reversible and turns two external hex sizes. Drivers have a cushion grip for comfort and some slip resistance.

    Cramped quarters are no obstacle for these compact T-handle key sets. The shaft is up to 75% shorter than others to squeeze into small gaps. It also won't wobble as much as a long shaft, so you'll have better control to precisely position screws.
    Black Phosphate-Coated Steel—The dark, matte coating resists rust in most wet and outdoor applications. However, it won't hold up to salt water and chemicals.
    Cushion Grip—Avoid sore, blistered fingers when completing lengthy projects. These handles have a plastic coating that absorbs pressure for extra comfort.
