Adjustable Spanner drop forged, hardened jaws & heavy duty spanner for industrial applications
An adjustable spanner, also referred to as a crescent wrench, is a versatile hand tool designed to grasp and turn nuts, bolts, and other fasteners of varying sizes.
- This wrench has serrated jaws, one of which is pivoted on the handle to create a strong gripping action on the work.
- The unique feature that distinguishes an adjustable spanner from a fixed-size wrench is its movable jaw, which allows users to adjust the width of the opening, thus accommodating multiple fastener sizes.
- This adaptability makes the adjustable spanner an essential tool in both professional and DIY applications.
Specifications
- Material: High-quality carbon steel or alloy steel, drop forged for added strength and durability.
- Jaws: Hardened jaws for improved gripping and resistance to wear.
- Adjustable Mechanism: A screw mechanism allows for the jaws to adjust to different sizes of nuts or bolts.
- Finish: Typically chrome-plated or phosphate coated for corrosion resistance and durability.
- Handle: Designed for comfort and strength, often ergonomically shaped to reduce user fatigue.
- Size Range: Adjustable to fit a wide range of fastener sizes.
- Weight: Heavier duty models have a robust weight that provides stability during heavy applications.
Advantages
- Versatility: The adjustable mechanism allows the spanner to work with a wide range of bolt sizes, reducing the need to carry multiple wrenches.
- Durability: The drop-forged construction ensures strength and long-lasting performance, while hardened jaws improve gripping power and resistance to wear.
- Heavy Duty Performance: Designed to handle heavy-duty tasks, making it suitable for industrial and mechanical use.
- Corrosion Resistance: The coating (chrome or phosphate) enhances protection against rust and environmental wear, ensuring a long service life.
- Increased Leverage: The long handle provides leverage, making it easier to apply more torque when tightening or loosening fasteners.
- Precise Adjustment: The adjustable screw mechanism allows for fine-tuned adjustments, providing a snug fit for various fasteners.
Size
- Adjustable spanner set typically come in various sizes, with the jaw opening ranging from small (for light use) to large (for heavy-duty applications). Common sizes include:
-
- Small Sizes: 6-150mm (e.g., 6″, 8″, 10″ spanners)
- Medium Sizes: 10-250mm (e.g., 12″, 14″, 15″, 18″ spanners)
- Large Sizes: 18-450mm (e.g., 24″, 30″, 36″ spanners)
-
Applications
- Automotive Repairs: Adjustable wrench is ideal for use in vehicle maintenance, repairs, and assembly where different-sized nuts and bolts are used.
- Industrial Settings: Adjustable wrench commonly used in factories, assembly lines, and other industrial settings for machinery assembly and maintenance.
- Construction: Useful for tightening or loosening nuts and bolts in construction machinery and equipment.
- Plumbing: Often used in plumbing work to adjust to various pipe fittings and fixtures.
- General Mechanical Use: In mechanical workshops, for working with machinery, engines, or other mechanical systems where adjustable tools are needed.
Package Include
- 1 piece of adjustable spanner of different sizes
