The Major Tech VB06 is a 6mm insulated hex key, rated to 1000V AC and 1500V DC for work on or near live electrical conductors. The VB06 is made from chrome vanadium steel with a 90-degree L-shaped head and a 180mm long arm, and conforms to EN 60900. It is individually tested to 10,000V, which suits switchboard and equipment work on 6mm hex fasteners near energised parts.
Driving a 6mm hex fastener near live parts requires a key that provides an insulation barrier rated for the voltage present. The Major Tech VB06 is insulated to 1000V AC and 1500V DC and individually tested to 10,000V for that additional margin of safety. The 90-degree head lets the long arm reach a recessed fastener while the short arm turns it. Its chrome vanadium construction withstands the torque of tightening or loosening a fastener.
An insulated hex key removes the risk of a bare key bridging a live terminal during adjustment. The VB06 provides a 180mm long arm that reaches recessed hex fasteners on switchgear and equipment. Conformance to EN 60900 establishes a recognised standard for the insulation on a live-work tool. A bevelled tip engages the fastener cleanly and reduces cam-out during turning.
The Major Tech VB06 does not remove the need for safe isolation, testing, and PPE; the insulation is a barrier for use up to 1000V AC and 1500V DC, not a licence to work live carelessly. It is a 6mm hex key only, so other hex sizes need the matching key. Inspect the insulation before each use and retire the tool if the coating is cut or damaged.
(VB06)
The Major Tech VB06 is a 6mm insulated hex key for turning 6mm hex fasteners on or near live electrical conductors. It suits switchboard and equipment work. The rating covers 1000V AC and 1500V DC.
The VB06 is fully insulated for use on live conductors up to 1000V AC and 1500V DC, and conforms to EN 60900. Each key is individually tested to 10,000V. Safe isolation, testing, and PPE still apply, as the insulation is one layer of protection.
The Major Tech VB range of insulated hex keys spans 3mm to 10mm (VB03, VB04, VB05, VB06, VB08, VB10), per the Major Tech datasheet. This VB06 is the 6mm size, with a 180mm arm. Match the key size to the fastener.
The VB06 is made from chrome vanadium steel, a hard-wearing grade used in professional hand tools. The steel body handles the torque of turning a fastener. An insulated coating provides the voltage rating.
The insulated hex key has a 180mm long arm with a 90-degree L-shaped head. The long arm reaches recessed fasteners, while the short arm turns them. The bevelled tip engages the hex socket cleanly.
The rating means the insulation is rated for live work up to 1000V on AC systems and up to 1500V on DC systems. This is the standard rating for EN 60900 insulated tools. The key must still be inspected before each use.
Inspect the insulated coating before each use, and check for cuts, cracks, or wear. Retire the tool if the insulation is damaged, as this compromises the voltage rating. Store it dry and away from sharp edges.
The Major Tech VB06 is available online from Sparky Direct, with Australia-wide delivery to any state or territory including regional areas. Sparky Direct is an Australian electrical wholesaler established in 2005, supplying more than 500,000 customers with transparent trade pricing.
