Question 1

What is the SATA GL80104A Extra Long Ball Point Hex Key 1.5mm and what is it used for?

Accepted Answer

It’s an extra-long hex key with a ball-end tip designed for 1.5mm hex fasteners. The extended length improves reach and leverage, making it ideal for tightening or loosening screws in hard-to-reach spots across electronics, machinery, and furniture assemblies.

Question 2

What does 'extra long' mean for this tool, and how does it help with leverage?

Accepted Answer

The design provides up to 30% more length than standard hex keys, giving you better access in tight spaces and greater torque when tightening or loosening fasteners.

Question 3

How does the ball point tip improve usability in tight spaces?

Accepted Answer

The ball-end tip allows angled entry to fasteners, enabling up to about 25 degrees of off-axis insertion. This makes it easier to line up the tool when space is limited.

Question 4

What materials and finish are used, and what durability do they offer?

Accepted Answer

The key is made from chrome vanadium (Cr-V) steel for strength and durability, with a corrosion-resistant finish to resist rust and extend tool life.

Question 5

What do 'precise fit' and 'chamfered tips' mean in practice?

Accepted Answer

A precise-fit tip minimizes wobble and reduces the risk of stripping 1.5mm hex fasteners. Chamfered tips ease insertion and help you find the socket more quickly.

Question 6

What applications is this hex key best suited for?

Accepted Answer

It’s well-suited for electronics, machinery, and furniture assembly tasks where 1.5mm hex fasteners are used and access is restricted or awkward.

Question 7

How do I use it correctly to avoid stripping or damaging fasteners?

Accepted Answer

Align the tip with the fastener, apply steady torque, and avoid sudden impacts or using the key with power tools. Use the extra length for leverage, but don’t over-torque.

Question 8

How should I maintain and store the tool to maximize life?

Accepted Answer

Keep it dry, wipe it after use, and apply a light coating of oil to prevent rust. Store in a dry toolbox or organizer to prevent corrosion and loss.

Question 9

Is this compatible only with 1.5mm hex fasteners, or can it be used with other sizes?

Accepted Answer

This key is specifically sized for 1.5mm hex fasteners. Using it with other sizes may damage the tool or the fastener.

Question 10

How does this tool compare to standard straight hex keys or cheaper variants on Fepy?

Accepted Answer

Compared with standard straight keys, the extra length and ball-end tip provide superior access and maneuverability in tight spaces. The Cr-V construction and precision tip offer reliable performance, often at a higher price but with improved durability and usability.
