        Description: |  
| Example marked Andree Wrench 8" with this patent number.  The spring loaded L shaped lever releases the head allowing it to be flipped and reattached to reverse direction (tighten to loosen or loosen to tighten). The top part of the T handle slides back and forth while the patent drawing shows a fixed handle. Early advertising also shows the fixed handle. |
