Crowfoot, Striking & Specialty Wrenches
This category holds wrenches made for particular jobs. It includes crowfoot wrenches, striking wrenches, specialty wrenches and non-sparking spanner wrenches. Each type solves a problem that an ordinary open or ring wrench cannot.
They are used where a standard wrench cannot reach, must be struck with a hammer, or must not create sparks near flammable atmospheres. Check the fastener size, the access available and the working environment before choosing.
- Reaching nuts that standard wrenches cannot fit
- Loosening seized fittings with a hammer blow
- Maintenance in areas with flammable vapours present
