The job

One multi-profile tool; brand examples do not establish fit for every fork cap.

Format

One six-profile body

Identify the exact cap profile

Use the cap’s actual shape and fork instructions, not a general brand match.

What this choice changes

Six profile faces for specifically supported caps

The FCT-1 engages selected suspension-fork cap profiles that can be awkward to operate by hand. Its six faces correspond to different supported cap shapes. This is one multi-profile body, rather than six hex sockets, and no numerical socket-size set is inferred from the number of faces.

Park Tool names selected FOX, RockShox, DVO, Marzocchi and Öhlins cap designs. Identify the exact cap and receiving profile before choosing it; the fork brand alone is insufficient. A matching contact shape also does not supply the cap’s installation torque or removal procedure.

Compare SKT-6 when the operation instead requires the documented flat-faced hex sockets. The maker specifically warns against using FCT-1 to overtighten a cap. Its value is profile engagement, not a guarantee that a seized or overtightened cap can be removed without damage.

Identify the exact cap profile

Use the cap’s actual shape and fork instructions, not a general brand match.

Distinguish profiles from hex sockets

The FCT-1 faces and SKT-6 socket sizes are different receiving arrangements.

Fit checks & limits

  • No every-cap/brand-wide compatibility or damage-free result.
  • Follow the cap installation instructions; do not use the tool to overtighten.

Questions before you choose

Does it cover every cap from the listed brands?

No. Park Tool names selected cap designs. Match the exact cap profile.

Does it include the SKT-6 socket sizes?

No. FCT-1 is one multi-profile body; SKT-6 is a separate hex-socket set.

Can I use it to apply extra tightening leverage?

The maker warns against overtightening. Use the exact cap’s installation instructions rather than adding torque by feel.
