Overview
Tekno RC put their own spin on the wheel wrench, and the result is a pit tool you reach for all day. TKR1116 combines a 17mm wheel wrench with a shock cap tool in a single handle, so the two jobs you do most often at the track share one slot in your pit bag.
The handle is longer than traditional designs and shaped with ergonomic channels, which means noticeably more leverage and a far more comfortable grip whether you are cranking 17mm wheel nuts down before a main or breaking them loose after one.
Key Features
- 17mm hex socket sized for 1/8-scale wheel nuts
- Integrated shock cap tool on the opposite end
- Extended handle length for added leverage
- Ergonomic channels for a comfortable, secure grip
- Two of the most-used pit tools combined in one piece
Performance Benefits

Usage Notes
- Seat the socket fully onto the wheel nut before applying force
- Use the shock cap end on Tekno RC shock caps; check the fit before forcing it onto other brands
- Wipe the socket clean after running to keep dirt and grit out
- Re-check wheel nut tightness between runs
