Flex Head spanner?

Hi All

Just a question hoping someone can help me with.

Recently purchased a new Kit for myself for work on the car and other small fixes
I purchased the Bahco 94pce Socket & Spanner Combo Set. #S87+7.

All looks fantastic only issue is I have no idea what the Flex Head spanners are mainly used for ?

The parts I am talking about are as follows
Flex Head spanners
8-9 mm
10-11 mm
12-13 mm
14-15 mm

Can anyone can shed some light on these spanners and what they are usually used for?
Any feedback would be appreciated.

Regards
JN

Like any tool, the flex-head spanners are used where they're helpful.

In general, flex head spanners are used when you want the shape of a socket-and-ratchet but don't have room for the ratchet head. I think they're nearly useless.
