Origin
The concept for this tool was developed by the company's European tool designer as a way to get all the way around a captive fitting. A fitting that is inaccessible to a socket because of its unique installation location can be difficult to remove, especially if it has become rounded and worn. Many chassis, front-end and suspension components have fittings with this problem.
The Hexforce wraps itself around the fitting like a socket and provides a wrap-around grip on the fitting to help break it free. The Hexforce provides the distributor and the user with a unique solution to a common problem.

Selling points
Hexforce tools have the slogan - "Fits like a wrench - grips like a socket" because these tools offer three times the gripping surface. The Hexforce provides a full wrap-around gripping surface that open end wrenches cannot provide, even on captive fittings where sockets don’t work. Perfect for the professional installer working on chassis, suspension, alignment, front-end, air conditioning and tube nut applications. Worldwide patents pending.
- Grips worn fittings and does not slip off.
- Works where open-end wrenches fail.
