If you are lucky,thats all you will need.I usually have to clamp a locking pliers on to the allen wrench for leverage.Charlie

when u replace it use water proof grease on the threds and replace every 2 to 3 years needed or not then u can toss out the visegrips.. btw a box wrench doesnt ruin the tool

Zincs are not replaced by time intervals.They are replaced by amount consumed.When they are approaching 1/2 comsumption...They need to be changed.Charlie
