17 mm Metric Hex Key

The Eklind 18634 is a 17 mm metric hex key designed for professionals and technicians who need a long-reach tool for deep-set fasteners. Its plain ball end allows angled entry when straight access is not possible. The black oxide finish adds corrosion resistance for workshop durability.

Sustained Torque Application

The long arm measures 9 11/16 in, providing extended leverage for breaking loose tight bolts without cheater bars. The short arm at 2 27/64 in offers control in confined spaces. Both tips are machined from HAWA material to withstand repeated high-force cycles without rounding.

Hex Interface Constraints

The 17 mm tip size fits a single fastener standard, limiting use to matching metric socket head cap screws and set screws. The plain ball geometry reduces maximum torque compared to a straight hex because contact area decreases at an angle. The tool is non-insulated, non-magnetic and not tether-ready.

Questions about this item

Does the 17 mm hex tip generate heat or noise during extended use?

The 17 mm hex key is a manual hand tool with no moving parts, so it produces no noise, heat or power draw during all-day use.

What drive tool or handle is required to turn the 17 mm tip?

The 17 mm hex key is a solid L-shaped wrench; you grip the 9 11/16 in long arm directly — no separate drive tool, socket or handle is needed.

Will the 17 mm tip fit fasteners on older metric equipment I already own?

Yes, the 17 mm metric tip matches standard 17 mm hex fasteners found on older metric machinery and vehicles.
