Alloy steel hex keys, commonly known as Allen wrenches or hex key wrenches, are precision tools designed for installing and removing socket head cap screws, socket set screws, button head socket cap screws, flat head socket cap screws, shoulder screws, and other fasteners with internal hex drives. Their compact L-shaped design provides access to recessed fasteners in applications where conventional wrenches or sockets cannot be used.
Manufactured from alloy steel, these hex keys are intended for demanding industrial maintenance, manufacturing, assembly, and repair applications. They are commonly used throughout industrial machinery, automation equipment, robotics, tooling, fixtures, maintenance departments, machine shops, production facilities, OEM manufacturing, and field service operations. Hex keys are an essential tool for installing and servicing internally driven fasteners across a wide range of mechanical assemblies.
Proper tool selection should consider the required hex size, available installation clearance, fastener accessibility, and application requirements. Individual product pages provide verified hex key sizes and additional dimensional information where available to assist engineers, maintenance professionals, and purchasing teams in selecting the appropriate tool.
Cold Headers supplies alloy steel hex keys in a broad range of inch sizes to support socket head cap screws, button head socket cap screws, flat head socket cap screws, socket set screws, shoulder screws, and other internally driven fasteners. Our catalog is organized to simplify exact-size selection while providing consistent engineering information across every product family.
Begin by confirming the required hex size for the mating fastener. Review installation clearance, fastener accessibility, tool length, and application requirements before selecting a hex key. Proper tool selection helps ensure efficient installation and maintenance of internally driven fasteners.
Cold Headers Inc. has supplied specialty industrial fasteners and related products since 1962. Our catalog helps engineers, distributors, maintenance professionals, and purchasing teams locate exact sizes and difficult-to-find industrial fastening products without unsupported inventory claims.

Short arm alloy steel hex keys, commonly known as short arm Allen wrenches or stubby hex keys, are precision tools designed for installing and removing internally driven fasteners where limited working space requires a compact tool profile. Their L-shaped configuration features a shorter working arm for improved access in confined installations while providing engagement with socket head cap screws, socket set screws, button head socket cap screws, flat head socket cap screws, shoulder screws, and other internal hex fasteners.
Manufactured from alloy steel, these short arm hex keys are intended for demanding industrial assembly, maintenance, manufacturing, and repair applications. They are commonly used throughout industrial machinery, automation equipment, robotics, tooling, fixtures, maintenance departments, machine shops, production facilities, OEM manufacturing, and field service operations where restricted access makes standard-length tools impractical.
Proper tool selection should consider the required hex size, available installation clearance, fastener accessibility, and application requirements. Individual product pages provide verified hex key sizes and dimensional information where available to assist engineers, maintenance professionals, and purchasing teams in selecting the appropriate tool.

Socket pipe plugs are internally driven threaded plugs designed to close threaded pipe openings in fluid handling systems, pneumatic equipment, hydraulic assemblies, valves, pumps, manifolds, and industrial machinery. Their internal hex drive allows installation and removal using standard hex keys or hex bits while maintaining a compact profile that is suitable for applications where external wrench clearance is limited.
Socket pipe plugs are commonly specified for industrial machinery, hydraulic systems, pneumatic equipment, pumps, valves, process equipment, maintenance repairs, instrumentation, automation equipment, and OEM manufacturing. Their internally driven design provides convenient installation in recessed locations while allowing future removal when servicing or modifying equipment.
Proper pipe plug selection should consider thread size, thread type, installation method, mating component, operating environment, and system requirements. Individual product pages provide verified thread sizes and dimensional information where available to assist engineers, maintenance professionals, and purchasing teams in selecting the appropriate pipe plug.
Cold Headers supplies socket pipe plugs in a broad range of sizes, including standard and difficult-to-source configurations. Our catalog is organized to simplify exact-size sourcing while providing consistent engineering information across every product family.
Begin by confirming the required thread size and thread type. Review installation clearance, mating component requirements, operating environment, and service conditions before selecting a pipe plug. Final selection should reflect the functional requirements of the completed assembly.
