Box wrench chrome-plated, cranked, width across flats 12 mm, length 185 mm - Knipex 98 01 12

When mounting rails, terminals and enclosures the wrench has to stay seated even under firm tightening. The 98 01 12 box wrench encloses 12 mm across flats all round, offers 185 mm of leverage and is cranked by 23 mm.

Benefits

• The closed ring takes the hexagon over all six corners and protects the edges of nuts and bolt heads.
• Cranked design with a crank height of 23 mm, which keeps the fingers clear of the mounting surface.
• 12 mm across flats at 185 mm length gives enough leverage while staying easy to handle.
• Slim head of 10 mm thickness and 18.5 mm width, so the wrench fits next to neighbouring components.
• Chrome-plated basic tool, easy to clean and resistant to corrosion in everyday workshop use.
• At 118 g light enough for longer assembly jobs and for work overhead.

Areas of use

Electrical installation, control cabinet and plant construction, assembly and maintenance. Wherever hexagon fasteners of 12 mm across flats are loosened and tightened and access is restricted by neighbouring components or by a raised mounting surface.
