Preliminary remarks on tools

Many tools exist in both metric (centimetres and metres) and imperial (inches and feet) versions. MSF uses the metric system, which is more widely used, but tools in imperial sizes can be ordered separately for countries which use the imperial system.

It is preferable to avoid small orders of individual tools and instead order one of the MSF toolkits (see KPRO in the Guide of kits), even if you do not need all the tools.

Most tools were formerly codified using the supplier Facom’s reference, with an "F" added at the start. Now all tools are codified according to the MSF coding system. The Facom reference was added at the end of the label. Nevertheless, this does not mean that all tools sent to the field are supplied by Facom. The actual brand varies according to the supply centre and the tool involved. In case of specific requirements, check the information on Facom tools at www.facom.com or www.catalogue.facom.com/en and do not hesitate to send this information in support of your order.
