Bearing Scrapers
Bearing scrapers are used for removing high spots on machined surfaces and to give a smoother surface on slideways, bearings and cast iron surface plates.

Bolt Extractors
Bolt extractors, also known as screw extractors or bolt removers, are tools designed to help remove broken or seized bolts, screws, studs, and other threaded fasteners from materials.

Bristol Spline Keys
The substantial and effective wrench engagement inherent in the Bristol spline design addresses the problems caused by other systems such as cam-out, socket reaming and rounding of wrenches.

Combination Wrenches
A combination wrench is a versatile hand tool used for tightening or loosening nuts and bolts.
One end of the wrench is designed as an open-end wrench, while the other end has a closed, ring-shaped end, making it a box-end wrench.

Deburring Tools
A deburring tool is a hand tool or machine used to remove burrs from the edges of metal, plastic, or other materials after they have been cut, drilled, or machined.

Impact Sockets
An impact socket is a specialized socket designed for use with impact wrenches or impact drivers.
Impact sockets are distinguished from regular sockets by their design and construction, which allows them to withstand the high forces generated by impact tools.

Hex Keys
Hex keys, also known as Allen keys or Allen wrenches, are tools used to drive bolts and screws with hexagonal sockets (hex heads).

Hook Wrench or Hook Spanner
Hook Wrenches with Nose End for slotted nuts DIN 1804 and for bearing locknuts DIN 981

Mallets
A mallet is a type of hammer with a large head.
Unlike traditional hammers with metal heads, mallets are designed for softer blows and are less likely to damage the struck surface.

Mini Ratchet Kits
A mini ratchet kit typically refers to a compact set of tools that includes a mini ratchet along with a variety of bits.
A mini ratchet is a smaller version of a traditional ratchet wrench, designed for use in tight or confined spaces where a standard-sized ratchet may not fit.

Mirrors
An inspection mirror is a tool designed to provide a clear view of objects or areas that are difficult to see directly.
It consists of a mirror mounted on a handle, and it is commonly used in various industries for inspection and maintenance tasks.

Pin Wrench or Pin Spanner
Hook Wrenches with Fixed Pin for round nuts with set pin holes inside, DIN 1816

Punch and Die Set
A punch and die set for shims is a tool used in manufacturing and fabrication processes to create shims—thin, flat pieces of material used for spacing, leveling, or adjusting.

Ratchet Arms
The ratchet arm is the lever or handle that users operate to tighten or loosen nuts, bolts, or other fasteners.

Screw Holding Screwdrivers
A self-holding screwdriver is a type of screwdriver with a mechanism that allows it to hold and secure a screw.
This type of screwdriver is designed to make the task of driving screws more convenient, especially in situations where using both hands may be challenging or where you need to work in tight spaces.

Stainless Steel
Solves the problem of extraneous rust when working with stainless steel fasteners.

Steel Stamps
Steel stamps are designed to be struck with a hammer or mallet to leave an indentation or mark on a metal surface.
They are commonly used for stamping serial numbers, dates, logos, or other identification marks on various metal objects.

Striking Wrenches
Striking wrenches, also known as hammer wrenches or slugging wrenches, are specialized tools designed for applying high torque to nuts and bolts in heavy-duty applications.
Unlike traditional wrenches, striking wrenches are built to withstand the impact of hammer blows without breaking or deforming.

Tap Extractors
A tap extractor is a tool designed to remove broken or damaged taps from drilled holes.
When a tap breaks inside a hole, it can be challenging to remove without damaging the surrounding material.
Tap extractors are specifically designed to address this issue.

Thread Restorers
A thread restorer is a tool designed to repair or clean damaged or worn threads on nuts, bolts, screws, or other threaded components.

Torque Multipliers
A torque multiplier is a tool designed to increase the amount of torque applied to a fastener, such as a nut or bolt.
It works by using a planetary gear system to multiply the force applied by the user, allowing them to achieve higher torque values than they could with manual effort alone.

Tubing Tools
"Tubing tools" is a broad term that can refer to a variety of tools used in the manipulation, cutting, bending, or joining of tubing
These consist of Tubing Cutters, Flaring Tools, Swaging Tools, Bending Tools and Wrenches

Valve Wheel Tools
These are wrench-like tools designed to fit over the handwheel of a valve.
They provide additional leverage for turning the wheel, making it easier to open or close the valve.

Wrenches, Spanners, Ratchets and Keys Index page
Wrenches are versatile hand tools used primarily for gripping, fastening, turning, tightening, and loosening bolts, nuts, and other fasteners.
They come in various shapes and sizes, each designed for specific tasks and types of fasteners.
