How to Lock and Use the Flex Head
The flex head pivots through a wide range of angles; the locking lever secures it at your chosen position so torque transfers without head slip. Flip the lever to re-angle the head, lock it, and ratchet with as little as 5° of swing — versus 30° for a standard wrench.

85698 vs 85098 Comparison
The 85698 adds the locking flex head to the XL platform; the non-locking 85098 XL trades lockability for a lower price. Choose the 85698 when you need the head to hold firm under load.
Materials & Design
Strong alloy steel with off-corner loading on the box end for better grip and reduced fastener rounding. Longer XL beams deliver greater access and leverage than standard-length wrenches.
Use Cases
Engine bays, fuel and brake lines, HVAC, and tight automotive or industrial fastening where standard wrenches can't swing.
