Count On Tools, Inc. (COT), a leading provider of precision components and SMT spare parts, is pleased to announce that PB Swiss Tools

now offers knurled hex keys as a standard option in their product catalog. The knurling at the shaft increases the non-slip property in wet or oily environments, thereby increasing the safety. The round shaft, manufactured from PB Tools’ unique steel alloy guarantees higher reverse fatigue strength. The new knurled hex keys from PB Swiss Tools is available in sizes 1.5mm –10mm as individual hex key l-wrenches or as a set in a handy plastic holder.

All PB Swiss Tools Knurled hex keys are made from the company’s signature spring steel alloy with precision heat treatment. This alloy is known for its high hardness, long durability, perfect dimensional accuracy, and exceptional elasticity and tenacity. Additionally, the PB Swiss Tools’ Knurled hex key series provides absolute precision and the highest regularity with tolerances smaller than a human hair. PB Swiss Tools’ hex keys are chrome-plated for protection against corrosion.

Each hex key is labeled with the serial number for additional security and to enable tracing the production back to the raw material. PB hex keys also feature a perfect-shaped ball-point end, allowing any user to turn the screws with an angle of up to 30°. PB Swiss Tools is the only manufacturer to offer such a large angle for ball-point hex keys, making them the most versatile for the user and very unique.

With more than 130 years of experience, PB Swiss Tools is a global leader of hand tools manufactured for use in the industrial marketplace, even for the most hazardous jobs. All PB Swiss Tools are 100 percent Swiss-made and come with an unlimited lifetime guarantee. Work with the best!
