How To Restore A Hex Wrench

[scalabration]

It's a good idea to file off any burrs and maybe add a slight chamfer on each edge. That's easier to do on the larger sizes.

i use a grinder lol

Why not just buy a quality hex wrench (Wera, Wiha, Bondhus) that last 1000 times longer than those cheap china ones?.

@patzy22 bondhus are shit.

[adisharr]

@patzy22 Agreed - why bother trying to fix that Chinese crap. The heat from the cutting makes the poorly 'hardened' surface even worse anyway.

@adisharr Key words "a good way to get a LITTLE bit more life out of your hex wrench..."

[jimmyshoes]

the cutting disc will shatter if you apply too much pressure!

it's much safer to use a file or failing that some sandpaper

if someone needs video tutorial for this, i doubt he should use anything that spins at 30,000+rpm
