Facom Slim Metric Combination Spanner - 26mm

OGV® stands for 'Optimal Grip & Torque'. It's Facom's proprietary design for their wrench profiles, which provides more effective contact between the ring and the nut, leading to better torque transmission and reduced risk of slippage compared to standard hex profiles.

The 15° offset on the ring end provides clearance for your fingers, allowing for safer and more comfortable use, especially when working on flat surfaces or in tight spots where knuckle clearance is limited.

The slim profile of the spanner is crucial for accessing fasteners in very confined or hard-to-reach areas where a standard or thicker spanner would not fit.

No, this is a metric spanner specifically designed for 26mm metric fasteners. Using it on imperial sizes may result in a poor fit, damage to the fastener, or the tool.

Wipe it clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth after use. Store it in a dry place, ideally in a toolbox or tool roll, to protect its matt chrome finish and prevent corrosion.

No, this is a standard combination spanner. It does not have a ratchet mechanism and is intended for direct engagement with nuts and bolts.

The matt chrome finish provides high resistance to corrosion, ensuring the durability and longevity of the spanner, even in demanding work environments.

Ensure the correct size (26mm) is being used and that the fastener head is clean and undamaged. Verify the OGV® profile is engaged fully with the nut or bolt head.

Utilize the 15° offset on the ring and handle to gain better access. Try repositioning the spanner or the workpiece if possible.

Clean the affected area gently with a soft cloth. For minor surface issues, a light application of a non-abrasive metal polish may help. Store in a dry place to prevent further corrosion.

Check for any burrs or damage on the fastener head. Ensure the spanner is fully seated on the fastener. If the spanner itself is worn, it may need replacement.
