SATA GL80106A Extra Long Ball Point Hex Key 2.5mm

The ball-point tip allows entry at angles up to about 25 degrees, making it easier to reach fasteners that aren’t perfectly aligned with the handle. This reduces the need to reposition objects and helps you work in cramped or angled areas.

Key specs include: size 2.5mm, extended length for extra reach, ball-end tip for angled access, chrome vanadium (Cr-V) steel for strength and durability, corrosion-resistant finish, chamfered tips for easy insertion, and easy-to-read size markings.

Ideal for assembly, machinery maintenance, automotive work, and any task where fasteners are in tight or awkward spaces. The extra reach and ball-end tip make it useful for electronics, automotive dashboards, or machinery servicing where straight drivers can’t reach.

Align the hex key with the fastener, insert firmly, then apply steady torque. Use the ball end to enter at a suitable angle if the fastener isn’t straight. Avoid using excessive force or impact tools to prevent rounding the fastener or bending the key.

Wipe clean after use and keep it dry to prevent rust. Store in its holder or a tool roll to avoid damage. Lightly oil the tip if you’re storing it for an extended period to maintain smooth operation.

No. This hex key is designed for manual use. Using it with impact drivers or high-torque power tools can damage the tip and shorten its life.

Compared to standard straight keys, the GL80106A offers a longer reach and a ball-end for angled entry, which is useful in tight spaces. On Fepy you can find similar long ball-end options like the 2.0mm and 3.0mm variants (examples include: 2.0mm: https://fepy.com/product/sata-gl80105a-extra-long-ball-point-hex-key-2-0mm and 3.0mm: https://fepy.com/product/sata-gl80107a-extra-long-ball-point-hex-key-3-0mm).

Choose extended-length keys like this one when you need extra reach for recessed fasteners. If space isn’t tight, a standard-length key saves weight and reduces leverage. The ball-end feature is especially helpful for misaligned screws or angled entry.

Yes. The combination of extended reach, durable Cr-V steel, corrosion-resistant finish, and a ball-end tip designed for angled access makes it a reliable choice for professional maintenance, automotive work, and assemblies where access is limited.
