Overview
A 5 inch hex key wrench from Eklind, weighing about 0.6 pounds. Eklind is a US manufacturer that has focused on hex keys for decades, and this model, the 13222D, ships as one wrench rather than part of a folding set.
Eklind has built almost its entire catalog around hex keys rather than treating them as one item in a broader wrench line, and has done so for decades. Buying a single key like this one suits a shop that already owns a set and just needs to replace or add one missing size. The listing does not give the hex size across flats, so match it to your fastener before ordering.
- Brand Eklind, model 13222D
- Length 5 inches, weight 0.6 pounds
Who it's for
This suits someone who already has a set of hex keys and needs to replace or add a single 5 inch size, or a technician who prefers loose keys over a folding set. It is not the choice for someone building a hex key collection from zero, since it covers only one size.
Pros and cons
- Sold as a single key, not a set
- Compact 5 inch length for tight spots
- Made by a hex key specialist brand
- Listing does not state hex size across flats
- One size only, no assorted set
Performance notes
A hex key applies torque to a fastener's hex socket through direct contact along multiple flats, rather than gripping the head from outside like a wrench does. The long arm on this style gives leverage without needing a ratchet. At 0.6 pounds it is a substantial single key rather than a lightweight folding one.
