What sizes are included in the PB 212.LH-10 RB set?
The exact PB 212.LH-10 RB is the nine-piece metric set: 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, and 10 mm. PB Swiss lists this model at 403 g; the nearby five- and six-piece listings are separate set variants.
What is the ball end designed to do?
The ball point is shaped for hexagon socket screws and lets the screw be turned at an angle of up to 30 degrees. That makes the PB 212.LH-10 RB useful when a direct, straight approach to the fastener is obstructed.
What material and finish does this set use?
PB Swiss describes the keys as made from a special alloy based on spring steel, combining elasticity with high hardness. The tools are chrome-plated and powder-coated, with colors assigned by size for quick visual identification.
How can I identify the correct key quickly?
The PB 212.LH-10 RB uses size-specific powder-coat colors so the nine metric keys can be distinguished visually in the holder. The product page also identifies a laser-marked serial number for the hand tool.
What does PB Swiss Tools' lifetime guarantee cover?
PB Swiss Tools states that its lifetime warranty covers material or manufacturing defects, subject to any country-specific legal limit. A defective part that became unusable for reasons other than misuse or natural wear may be replaced free of charge with an identical or equivalent product.
How do I make a warranty claim for this set?
PB Swiss Tools directs customers to use its contact form for a warranty claim. The company says return shipping costs are the customer's responsibility, and its hand-tool serial-number system supports traceability through production back to the raw materials used.
