To turn a hex key, typically you would rotate it clockwise to tighten a screw or bolt and counterclockwise to loosen it. The direction may vary depending on whether you are working with a right-hand or left-hand threaded fastener, but most screws and bolts use the right-hand thread standard. Always ensure you apply steady pressure to avoid stripping the fastener.
