Review: This tool will help make your rebuild a qaulity job. Well made ,did not scratch machined surfaces - Owners of hydraulic operated equipment should invest in the proper tools. After hours of videos for rebuilding my tractor FEL I got this tool. Do not use old modified screwdrivers. The tips are machined with rounded ends and will not be prone to scratching machined surface where the seals are seated. The tools help install and removal of seals safely and help making a rebuild of cylinder a quality job.
Review: High quality, perfect for small O rings - High quality perfect for small O rings on my garden tractors hydraulic ports. I had removed the old rings and tried repeatedly to insert the new ones, but none of the tools I had would help me get the O rings into the connector and into the slot. After trying for a couple of hours, I came to desertcart and found these. Once I had the ring into the connector, I used these to manipulate it into the slot. Both connectors were done in less than 10 minutes.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Anyone know what sizes these are? (to the guy who answered 'most popular', that's funny, but not too helpful!).**
A: M5x24, 1/4x20, 1/4x28, 5/16x 18, 3/8x16 and 1/2x13.

**Q: Will these o rings fit on oxyfuel torch connections?**
A: The box and label do not say for compressed gas use. I would be safe and say no. If they were, the manufacture would most likely say so. These do not. Compressed gases flowing through lines causes friction, resulting in heat production. Excessive heat production would melt these rubber "O" rings resulting in a fire or worse. Best bet is to go to your local compress gas store and purchase what they recommend. Better to be safe and obtain "O" rings made for and labeled for compressed O2.

**Q: Let's say i had a shower handle that needs the hex screw drilled out.  i think i can replace with a 3/16x1/4 hex.  what would the tap size be?**
A: A 1/4-20 threaded hole requires a 13/64 drilled hole prior to cutting your threads with a 1/4-20 tap. 
There are charts for this on the net. Be sure to identify your thread and pitch of your screw, prior to looking up your drilled hole diameter, and drilling.
Good luck.

**Q: SAE vs metric version, is one thicker than the other?**
A: Yes!  Although the difference maybe very slight it will impact performance if you use a metric seal in a SAE fitting.

Does the job, but it flexes a little. Grip is fine, and the blade wasn't too sharp
