1.5mm
2.0mm
2.5mm
on regular hex tip, Integy has the best quality, they are just a bit oversized so it fits very very tight on the hex screws.
you might also want to get a ball head 2.5mm, and Hudy one is the best, and hudy hook to remove exhaust springs and those castor clips, it works really good.
and if you are planning to use power tools, then get a set of Ofna power tools adaptor, it comes with 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0mm tip.

Ah10, where can I get the Ofna power tools adapter?
Are you saying that it will also not work on the newer 0.8 gearing of the MTX-3? I tried the tool on the Centax 3 and it worked fine.

By the way, I think Mugen makes it too.
Here is Ofna one
I remember I have seen something similar with Mugen headboard, so I assume Mugen makes one.

(The gear-turning handle works with all gears, it's the clutch-bell holding handle that works only with the Centax II clutch bells.)

i think the ball end is touching or is very close to the bottom of the cup. try to move the two sway bars apart a little.
