    When you've only got one free hand to fasten, reach for these keys. A retaining ring on the tip grips screws securely so they won't fall off as you tighten. These sets are useful when working above crevices that screws could slip into or when fastening tiny screws, such as those on carbide inserts. The small handle prevents you from generating too much torque when turning a fastener.
    Black-Oxide Steel—The coating offers minimal corrosion resistance, so these keys are best for dry environments.
