The VW Tin Screw Torquer Tool – Pair of 10mm Adaptors
Tired of stripping out or rounding VW tin screws during engine work? The VW tin screw tool makes removing stubborn M6 cheesehead screws fast, easy, and frustration-free. Meet the Tin Screw Torquers, precision-made socket adaptors from Fritz Custom Products.
Machined from 4130 billet chromoly, this VW tin screw tool fits directly over M6 cheesehead screws and works with any 10mm socket, wrench, or extension—no more wrestling with pliers or hacked-together screwdrivers. Designed for aircooled VW engines, including 36hp, 40hp, and other Type 1 setups.
✅ Reach Screws In Tough Spots Like:
-
Generator tin screws behind the intake manifold
-
Fan shroud side screws (without pulling the engine)
-
Thermostat flap bracket screws
-
Hidden 36hp tin screw behind the dipstick
-
Anywhere else access is tight or vertical
✅ Why Two?
You get 2 tools because they’re small and easy to misplace. Keep one on a lanyard or glue one into a 10mm socket for permanent use. One for now, one as backup.
⚠️ Compatibility Note
M6 cheesehead screws have a wide slot width tolerance from manufacturing. This tool fits most but may not fit every screw snugly. Even with some cam-out, it still works on the majority—and yes, it will snap off stubborn ones.
