Facom has just unveiled its new Torx ratcheting wrenches.
External or male Torx fasteners (E Torx) are in common use on vehicles today. The six-pointed star-type bolts offer a superior fit and grip when compared with regular fasteners and greatly reduce the risk of stripping the head during use.
The new ratcheting wrenches offer a considerable advantage over some conventional wrenches and ratchet/socket combinations. The low profile head and thin shaft are ideal for use in restricted access areas and jobs can be completed quickly because the wrench can be left on the fastener and turned in extremely small increments – five degrees in the case of the brand’s latest offerings.
Four models are available, covering the most popular E Torx sizes: E6 x E8, E10 x E12, E14 x E18 and E20 x E24. Two sets are also offered: the 464TX.J3PB which contains the first three of the aforementioned wrenches, and the 464TX.J4PB which is identical but also includes the addition of the E20 x E24 wrench.
