Milwaukee 48-22-2180 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What hex key sizes come in the Milwaukee 48-22-2180 folding hex key set?
Eleven SAE keys: 3/32, 7/64, 1/8, 9/64, 5/32, 3/16, 7/32, 1/4, 5/16, 3/8 and 1/2 inch. That spread covers small set screws on devices and trim right up through 1/2 inch fasteners on larger equipment, so most electrical work is handled from one folding body. All sizes are inch/SAE only, no metric keys in this set.
2) Is the Milwaukee 48-22-2180 hex key set metric or SAE?
SAE (inch) only. The 48-22-2180 carries eleven inch-sized keys from 3/32 to 1/2 inch. If you work on equipment with metric set screws, this set won't cover it and you'll need a separate metric folding set.
3) Can the keys on this Milwaukee folding hex set be used at an angle in tight panels?
Yes. The keys pivot up to 270 degrees out of the handle, so you can set a key off-axis to clear a panel wall or gutter and still pull torque on the fastener. The keys are also extended length for extra reach into deep boxes and enclosures, and the ends are chamfered so they start into a socket without fishing for it.
4) What is the part number I should order for the Milwaukee 11-key electrician's folding hex key set?
Order Milwaukee 48-22-2180. That's the 11-key SAE folding set with the electrician's extended-length keys. The metric version is a separate part number, so confirm you want inch sizes before ordering.
5) Should I buy a folding hex key set or loose L-keys for electrical work?
A folding set like the 48-22-2180 keeps all eleven SAE sizes captive in one handle, so nothing gets dropped into a live panel or lost in the truck, and the ergonomic handle gives you a grip that loose L-keys don't. Loose L-keys still win when you need to reach a fastener deeper than the folding body allows or need to drive one with a socket. For panel work, device set screws and enclosure hardware, the folding body is the faster tool.
6) How do you tell the key sizes apart quickly on the Milwaukee 48-22-2180?
Each key carries high-contrast, color-coded size markings, and the set uses an elevated key shelf with access zones so you can pick and pull a single key without prying the whole stack apart. That matters when you're on a ladder or working one-handed in a panel.
7) Will the keys in this Milwaukee set rust if they live in a damp truck box?
The keys have a black oxide finish that resists rust and corrosion, and they're made from heat-treated alloy steel for strength. It's a surface finish rather than plating, so it handles normal job box humidity but isn't a substitute for drying tools off after a wet day.
