Snap-on IZ13OE14X18 Torque Insert, 13 mm OE Head for 14 x 18 mm Receivers

Description

A 13 mm tube nut on a hydraulic manifold can sit right beside much larger mounting bolts. The Snap-on IZ13OE14X18 torque insert lets one 14 x 18 mm body handle that small nut too. It is the smallest open end Snap-on lists for the larger fitting.

M8 and the 13 mm hex

Both ISO 4032 and DIN 934 give M8 nuts a 13 mm hex. So the IZ13OE14X18 fits M8 hardware whichever standard your drawing uses. In addition, some small tube and sensor fittings carry 13 mm flats.

Low-end check on the Snap-on IZ13OE14X18 torque insert

The CTECHBN340A is the 14 x 18 body in CAT1500i, and it reads 17.0 to 340.0 N·m. However, Snap-on calibrates its wrenches from 20 to 100% of full scale. On this body, that band starts at 68 N·m. So an M8 value below 68 N·m sits outside the calibrated band. In that case, the IZ13OE9X12 on a 9 x 12 body makes the better pairing.

When the open jaw beats the IZ13IR14X18 ring

A ring closes around the nut, so it needs a clear path from above. On a tube nut or a stud with a lock nut, that path rarely exists. The IZ13OE14X18 slides in from the side instead. On the other hand, choose the IZ13IR14X18 ring for exposed bolt heads, since it wraps the whole hex.

A mixed-size station with the Snap-on IZ13OE14X18 torque insert

Picture a gearbox cover with M8 fittings beside M16 mounting bolts. With one CTECHBN340A, the operator swaps the IZ13OE14X18 for an IZ24IR14X18 ring and keeps one tool record. That works as long as the M8 value sits inside the body’s calibrated band. Then the head-length factor stored in the body covers each insert, provided you select it.

Two quick IZ13OE14X18 answers

Is this the smallest open end for the 14 x 18 fitting?

Yes. In CAT1500i, the 14 x 18 open ends start at 13 mm and run to 36 mm.

Will a 9 x 12 wrench take the IZ13OE14X18?

No. For a 9 x 12 receiver, choose the IZ13OE9X12 instead.
