There are numerous factors that determine the quality of a hex tool, but principle among them is the tools ability to install or remove a fastener. So what determines how well the tool will perform its primary duty?

A hex tools effectiveness is directly proportional to how well it fits into a fastener. Everyone understands that if a screw is removed with a blade that is too large or too small, it will not fit snuggly or engage properly into the screw head.  Both the tool and the fastener will probably be damaged. Hex tools are no different.

Bondhus enforces the tightest tolerances in the industry. Every tool is designed for the absolute optimal fit in the fastener. Tighter tolerances mean that even with a worst case fastener, the best possible fit will still be achieved. In addition, the Bondhus specification demands hex stock that is smooth and free of defects created in the process of drawing, sharp and clean corners, precise machining, and a tightly sealed surface to prevent damage from corrosion.
