The FACOM 42.9/16X5/8 is a professional-grade, double-ended fractional-inch flare nut wrench featuring a 9/16-inch opening on one side and a 5/8-inch opening on the other. While the smaller fractional sizes in the 42 series (like the 7/16x1/2") utilize 6-point walls, FACOM transitions the 9/16" x 5/8" profile and larger sizes to an advanced 12-point Bi-Hexagon geometry to optimize contact points on higher-torque fluid connections.
- 12-Point Bi-Hexagon Rings: Engineered for larger automotive fuel lines, hydraulic linkages, and air conditioning unions. The 12-point walls allow for double the indexing angles, making it much easier to seat the wrench onto a fitting in tightly confined spaces.
- 15° Cranked Offset: The heads are built with a structural 15° clearance bend relative to the flat handle core axis. This angle lifts the user's hands clear of surrounding components, preventing scraped knuckles.
- Calibrated Leverage Length: Features an overall structural length of 197 mm (~7.75 inches). This handles massive tightening pressure safely without stretching or warping soft brass, copper, or aluminum flare fittings.
- Satin Finish & Safety Compliance: Hot-forged with high-grade tool steel and finished in a smooth, anti-glare satin chrome presentation. Fully compliant with international aerospace and mechanical standards under ASME B107.100
