Klein Tools 70580 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What hex sizes come in the Klein Tools 70580 folding hex key set?
Six metric sizes: 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, 8 mm and 10 mm. All metric, no SAE/inch keys in the set, so if the fasteners on your equipment are inch hex you need a fractional set instead.
2) Is the Klein 70580 hex key set insulated for live electrical work?
No. The 70580 folding hex keys are not insulated and will not protect against electrical shock. De-energize the equipment before using them. If you need to work on energized parts, you need a tool rated and marked for insulated use.
3) Can I get enough leverage out of a folding hex key set to break loose a tight set screw?
The keys lock in two positions, straight out or at a right angle, so you can use the 5-3/8 inch handle as a lever arm on the right-angle setting. Klein specifically warns against slipping a pipe or any other extension over the handle to add leverage.
4) How deep do the keys seat in a socket, and will they strip the fastener?
The hex ends are square-cut rather than chamfered, so they bottom out at full depth in the socket and make maximum contact with the flats. That is what keeps them from camming out and rounding the socket on a tight screw.
5) How far do the keys reach into a recessed fastener?
Key lengths run 2.375 to 4 inches, with the longer blades on the larger sizes. That reach covers most recessed set screws and counterbored cap screws, but for anything deeper than 4 inches down a bore you want a long-arm ball-end hex key rather than a folding set.
6) Will this hex key set fit in a pouch or shirt pocket instead of taking up a tool bag slot?
Yes. Folded, the 70580 measures 5.25 x 1 x 1 inches and weighs 0.85 lb, so it drops into a pocket or pouch. The folding body is also why loose keys stop walking off the job, every size stays on the one handle.
7) What is the Klein Tools part number for the 6-piece metric folding hex key set?
Order Klein Tools 70580. That is the 6-key metric folding set covering 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 and 10 mm, finished in silver.
