Product Information
Full details
The Unior 15mm Pedal Wrench is a must-have tool for cyclists and home mechanics who frequently swap pedals or perform drivetrain maintenance. It offers professional-grade leverage and durability through its heat-treated tool steel construction, making it perfect for breaking loose seized pedals without damaging the crank arm; however, its specific 15mm size means it is limited to standard pedal spindles and will not fit pedals requiring an 8mm or 6mm hex key internal mount.

FAQs
Will this work on all pedals?
No, it is only compatible with pedals that feature 15mm wrench flats on the spindle. It will not work on pedals that rely solely on an internal 6mm or 8mm hex fitting.
Is the 270mm length too long for portable kits?
While it is a full-sized workshop tool, its flat, slim design makes it relatively easy to slip into most medium-to-large bicycle travel cases or tool rolls.
How do I know which way to turn the wrench?
The right (drive-side) pedal removes by turning counter-clockwise. The left (non-drive side) pedal is reverse-threaded and must be turned clockwise to remove.
Can I use this wrench for anything else?
While it is designed for pedals, it can be used for any 15mm bolt or nut where the slim profile is advantageous and high torque is required.
Does the rubber handle provide a good grip when oily?
Yes, the double-dipped handle is designed to provide traction, though it is always best practice to wipe off excess grease before applying force.
Troubleshooting
Wrench is slipping on pedal flats
Ensure the wrench is pushed fully onto the spindle flats and is parallel to the crank arm to maximize contact surface area.
Pedal will not budge
Verify you are turning in the correct direction (left pedal is reverse-threaded) and apply a penetrating lubricant to the crank interface.
Surface rust appearing on the wrench
Clean the tool with a light machine oil and store it in a humidity-controlled toolbox to prevent further oxidation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This wrench is designed specifically for pedals utilizing 15mm external flats on the spindle. Before use, ensure the pedal flats are free of debris to allow the tool to seat fully. To maintain the tool, wipe the wrench down with a dry cloth after use to remove moisture or grease, which prevents surface oxidation. Store in a dry environment. When using, ensure the wrench is pushed firmly onto the pedal flats to avoid 'cam-out' or slipping. If you find the pedal difficult to remove, apply a high-quality penetrating oil to the threads and allow it to sit for ten minutes before attempting to loosen again.
