1-1/16 12-Point SAE Flank Drive® Heavy-Duty Offset Handle Slugging Wrench

HX340A — 1-1/16 12-Point SAE Flank Drive® Heavy-Duty Offset Handle Slugging Wrench. Turn the specified fastener or fitting where jaw shape and access matter.

Applications and industries

Automotive service, machinery assembly and industrial maintenance are potential settings for matching fasteners or fittings.

• Match the opening or adjustment range to the fastener.
• Next, compare offset, length and head profile against nearby components.

These industry examples are selection guidance, not additional manufacturer approvals.

Features of HX340A

• Anvils are proportional to hex opening sizes
• Special heat treatment provides maximum durability for long life

Specifications and fit checks

• Dimension C, Overall Length, inches: 10
• ASME®: B107.100
• Size, inches: 1-1/16
• Size, mm: 27
• Finish: Industrial
• Dimension A, Head Depth, inches: 11/16

Confirm the measurement system and fitting type. A different offset or profile may change access even when the nominal size is similar.

HX340A selection checklist

For HX340A, verify the required task, working range, interface dimensions and package contents against the official catalogue details. This final check helps prevent ordering a visually similar model with a different fit or capability.

Choosing HX340A for the task

Match the opening to the fastener or fitting before considering handle length. Open-end, box-end, flare-nut and adjustable formats can offer different contact and access arrangements. Also, the surrounding pipework, panels or adjacent fasteners may limit how the wrench can be positioned. A model that reaches the fastener still needs enough room for controlled movement. Record any offset, head thickness or adjustment requirement that is essential to the job.

For specialized service, the vehicle or machine application may be more important than a familiar nominal size. Do not infer compatibility with an aircraft, hydraulic fitting or particular vehicle from a general wrench description. Similarly, longer reach does not establish a higher allowable load. Compare the exact format and documented purpose, then follow the relevant service instructions. When replacing an existing wrench, include its model number and the reason a different configuration is being considered.

Planning the workshop application

Define the intended job in practical terms before comparing options. Record the equipment or component involved, the operation to perform and the access available around it. Include the current tool or accessory if this purchase replaces an existing item. That context helps distinguish a size change from a different product function. It also makes the application and industry examples above easier to assess against the actual work.

Understanding the catalogue record

The official listing identifies this model as 1-1/16 12-Point SAE Flank Drive® Heavy-Duty Offset Handle Slugging Wrench. Its catalogue grouping is Heavy-Duty Striking Wrenches / Flank Drive® Offset Handle Sledge Hammer, 12-Point, inches/mm. Use that description to identify the product format, then read the individual specifications for the details that matter to the job. A category describes where the product sits in the range; it is not an additional compatibility approval.

Further catalogue details

• Style: 12-Point
• Dimension B, Head Dia., inches: 1-5/8

For this record, the available specification labels include Dimension C, Overall Length, inches; ASME®; Size, inches. Read each value together with its label and unit. A drive size, external dimension and working range describe different things, even if their numbers look similar. If the job requires a value that is not listed, request that detail before ordering instead of estimating it from the photograph.

The catalogue country-of-origin field is USA. This field concerns the listed product origin; it does not identify local inventory, delivery time or the warranty terms of a Vietnam quotation. Confirm those commercial details separately.

Comparing options before ordering

The comparison above names HX360A and HX380A. Review the displayed differences against the requirement for this job. Begin with function and compatibility, then compare access, configuration and included components. If the names differ by size, drive, colour or kit format, identify which difference matters before making a choice. Similar models are not automatic replacements, and a larger or more expensive option is not necessarily the better match.

Purchase questions and receiving checks

What should the order include?

Ask for a line-item description of the supplied configuration. For a set or kit, confirm the contents; for a component, confirm the quantity and the matching parent model where relevant. If photographs show a larger assembly or several items, do not assume all of them form part of this SKU. Keep any essential accessories and documents explicit in the quotation so that receiving checks can follow the same requirements.

Receiving, care and record keeping

On receipt, compare the item and its packaging with the ordered model, quantity and configuration. Check the supplied components and any requested documentation. Keep the product identification visible in the workshop’s inventory record. If the delivered item differs from the confirmed order, resolve that difference before assigning it to the planned job. This is especially useful when a range contains visually similar sizes or accessories for different parent tools.

For continued use, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for inspection, cleaning, storage and maintenance. Do not assume that a cleaning chemical, lubricant or maintenance method used on another tool is suitable here. Keep damaged or uncertain equipment out of the planned task until its condition is assessed. Record any replacement parts by model so future orders use the confirmed reference rather than a visual guess.
