Torx Tools

What are Torx Keys?


A Torx key wrench helps you loosen and tighten key bike components during maintenance, cleaning, and repairs. Torx tools are specifically designed with a star-shaped tip to perfectly fit the star-shaped recesses of Torx fasteners, enabling you to apply greater torque with advanced precision. They also come in a range of standard sizes including the popular T25 and T30 torque wrench.

Are Torx and Allen Keys the Same?


No, Torx and Allen keys are not the same. Both are used to tighten and loosen fastenings, but Allen keys have a six-sided shape that doesn't provide as much torque as the six-pointed star shape of Torx tools.
