Wera950 SPKL/9 SM N SB Multicolour BlackLaser L-key set, 9pc, Metric, 1.5-10mm, 05073593001

After long time having no hex keys in my arsenal, I had to get one as most of the jobs had to be done with this type.As I like to have quality tools with me at all times I had many recommendation that Wera can do any required job and they make high-quality tools. I have to say they were on the higher price I was considering long time if I should get them. After many weeks I have made a decision to give it a go as If it is not a mistake they will get back all the money after long term. I can say for sure I made no mistake and this is great set of tools.Delivered day after in a premium packaging as expected and keys themselves are great. Durable, precisely made with a good grip to them with rubber covers which are color coded and makes your job a lot easier by picking the right size in no time. After doing many jobs with these I can say I wouldn't buy any other ones and am too happy to recommend them to everyone considering to get a big set to have it for any required job!

These come in an all-green sleeved set, or the multi-coloured set you see here. The sleeving is plastic, and provides a solid grip - It's well stuck on, durable, and doesn't slide about. I went for the multi-coloured set as they were slightly cheaper, but the colours can help to distinguish between the different sizes. The holder easily locks and unlocks by sliding the green latch on the side, and the keys hold in their slots very well, but are also removed without much trouble.Something great about these is that compared to a standard set of hex keys, they are much larger, allowing you to apply a greater torque. The largest 10mm key is almost 24cm in length.The best thing about these is definitely the ball on the end, allowing you to use the keys at an angle. It works really well, I don't have any difficulty using them at angles. The Hex-Plus profile also allows up to 20% more torque to be applied, according to Wera, and reduces the chance of rounding off the fastener. I think they also help a bit with getting out lightly rounded fasteners, so you can try these before hammering in a torx bit.I think it's safe to say these are the best hex keys in existence. The hex-plus profile, large size, and brilliant ball on the end makes these effective and very easy to use.Highly recommended!

Amazing set of Allen keys. Great for working on bikes and cars, especially chinesium bolts which are very prone to stripping. Can’t recommend enough

great for working on my motorbike, strong, and i like the cover for each key so that it doesnt make any scratches if dropped

I've been using Wera tools for the last ten years.I first found Wera in Screwfix. Eventually they stopped stocking them and I turned to Amazon to renew my trusty tools.I renew my hex keys once every six months. Some would say it excessive but I only need to round one bolt head and the hour removing the rounded bolt would far outweigh the cost or renewal.The weight and lack of flex in these keys make them the perfect hex key for myself.When I first stared using these the outer rubber was green on all of the set. It's good to see they have now colour coded the keys. I'm often working in small spaces with not much light so it makes selecting the correct key simple when they are all scattered in a pile (let's be honest few of us put them back in the holder until you've finished the job in hand)I'm a engineer by trade and my half hour labour rate is double the cost of these keys. The last thing I want a customer to see is me fumbling with cheap tools.I was once told a poor workman blames his tools. This in part is true BUT have you noticed all the best workmen have the best tools?I'm a best workman....

These hex keys from Wera are of good quality, nice and long with a hefty, well made feel to them. The Hex Plus feature is a patented design that apparently avoids stripping heads and applies more torque. From what I read elsewhere this appears to indeed work. Made in the Czech Republic, not Germany, they are covered with a coloured nylon sleeve that makes them feel nicer in the hand and easier to identify at a glance.I do like these, my only real gripe would be the lack of a better case. I would have preferred the nylon case the imperial versions come with. The friction fit holder they come with may hold up well enough, time will tell.

Bought for a long cycle trip in France. A little heavier than some but no doubting the product manufacturing quality. Highly recommended.

They don't fall out of the holder even being rattled around invertedBit of a faff to get in and out of the holderSeem OK - nothing broken yetI will never remember the colour coding, but they are pretty I guessUsed them a few times, saved for cleaner environments, so they will hopefully stay pretty a while longerSeem to grip the sockets nicely (handy for when hand starting is an issue)
