Klein Tools 70582 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What hex sizes come in the Klein Tools 70582 folding hex key set?
Seven metric keys: 1-1/2 mm, 2 mm, 2-1/2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm and 6 mm. All metric, no SAE sizes in this set, so if your fasteners are inch-sized you need a separate SAE folding set.
2) Can I use the Klein 70582 hex keys on live electrical work?
No. These folding hex keys are not insulated and will not protect against electrical shock. De-energize before working, and use Klein's insulated tools where live work is involved. Eye protection is called for in use.
3) How much reach do the keys on the Klein 70582 give me for recessed set screws?
Key lengths run from 0.594 to 1.781 inches (1.5 to 4.5 cm), so reach into a deep counterbore is limited compared with a long-arm L-key. For set screws down a long bore, use a long-arm or ball-end hex key instead. The handle body is 3.703 inches (9.4 cm) long, which is what you grip.
4) Will the Klein 70582 hex key set fit in a pocket or a pouch on my tool belt?
Yes. Closed, the set measures 3.625 x 1 x 1 inches and weighs 0.27 lbs, so it drops into a shirt pocket or a small pouch. The folding body also keeps the seven keys together instead of loose in a bag.
5) Can I get enough torque out of a folding hex key set in tight quarters?
The 70582 keys lock at two positions, straight out or at a right angle, so you can use the body as a screwdriver handle in line or swing it out for leverage in a tight space. Don't slip a pipe or other extension over the handle to get more leverage.
6) Will these hex keys round out worn socket-head screws?
The ends are square-cut and flat rather than ball-end, so the key bottoms out for full-depth contact in the socket, which is what reduces slipping and stripping. A ball-end key contacts less and is more likely to cam out, but it lets you work at an angle; the 70582 needs the key in line with the fastener.
7) Is the Klein 70582 the right set for panel and fixture set screws in an electrical shop?
It covers the small metric range, 1-1/2 mm through 6 mm, which is where most device, fixture and connector set screws land. Above 6 mm you'll need a larger set. Klein also builds this as a metric-only set, so a shop standardizing on inch hardware should order the SAE folding set alongside it.
