The contact surfaces are designed to maximize friction and minimize the risk of damaging the components being worked on.

Maintenance Tips

To maintain the efficiency of the wrenches over time, it is advisable to clean them after each use, removing any water residues or impurities. A light layer of protective oil can be applied periodically to preserve the mechanisms and prevent oxidation. Store the tool in a dry environment, preferably in its original case or a toolbox, avoiding prolonged contact with corrosive substances or excessively humid environments.
