Default Bulk Hex Key / T handle

Harbor Freight.

If you need lots of them - in one size - I'd go to a manufacture site
or phone number and see what they can do. MSCdirect.com has a number of
vendor names - and that might give you a start.

Normally they are in sets.

But a manufacture site might have one size in quantity from production.

I have found a couple places where I can order several 'L' shaped hex

wondering if one of you guys could point me to a site or vendor where I
could order similarly in a small T-handle like this one.

This one came with a little bitty 4 jaw chuck to adjust the jaws. The
whole chuck was $30-40 so the t-handle can't have been very expensive.

Bulk L shape are pennies each in modest quantities. I'ld pay a little
more for the T handle, but not a lot. I considered making them, but that
seems a waste of my time. If I can't find a good price I'll just keep
ordering the L keys.
