What do we supply from the Facom range?

| Multi-Position Pliers (Pinces Multiprises) | Pliers with stepped jaw-opening adjustment, used to grip parts of different diameters without changing the tool, useful in general workshop maintenance. |
| Workshop Trolleys (Servantes d'Atelier) | Mobile trolleys with drawers for organising and transporting hand tools in the workshop, used at workstations where tools must stay tidy and quickly accessible. |

How do we supply Facom in Romania?
What we present about Facom comes from the manufacturer's technical documentation and the brand's history. We bring Facom tools in to order through EU supply channels, typically within 1–4 weeks of confirmation. For an accurate quotation, send us the exact reference of the tool or set you need and, for a torque wrench, the torque range required. We do not keep every Facom reference permanently on the shelf — we check the actual situation on each request we receive.
Service and installation training in Romanian for Facom tools are provided by the manufacturer.
Frequently asked questions about Facom
How do I choose the right Facom wrench for a given bolt diameter?
The choice starts from the size of the bolt or nut head, expressed in millimetres or inches, and from the access space around the joint. For tight areas, the 92A series with an offset head offers a better working angle, while for high torques the 440 series withstands heavy mechanical loads. Checking the number of splines on the head helps avoid confusion between similar variants.
Do you bring Facom tools to order in Romania?
The Facom codes requested are ordered item by item, without being kept on the shelf in our own warehouse; delivery typically takes 1–4 weeks. We follow the manufacturer's catalogue to identify the full code of the wrench or pliers you want. Sending the code from the packaging or from the existing tool greatly speeds up identification of the correct variant.
What is the difference between Facom multi-position pliers and combination pliers?
Multi-position pliers, such as the 180A series, have a sliding slot that lets you adjust the jaw opening for parts of different sizes, making them versatile on site. Combination pliers, such as 187A, have a fixed opening and combine gripping and cutting functions in one body. The choice depends on the variety of diameters being worked and on whether you prefer a dedicated or a universal tool.
What information do I send for a Facom tool order?
Send the full code as it appears on the existing tool or in the manufacturer's catalogue, including the version suffix, because many families have variants that look very similar. For sets, state the number of pieces and the packaging type you want, metal case or textile bag. These details reduce the risk of a wrong order in a range with dozens of similar variants.
How do I request a Facom quotation?
Send the Facom code from the nameplate and the quantity; we reply in English with availability and the lead time written in the quotation.
