Description: |
| Adjustable jaw ratchet wrench; the adjustable jaw design is clumsy in that the overall width of the head is wide compared to the jaw opening. The jaws adjust by a screw with left- and right-hand threads. The ratchet mechanism allows for either pawl to be disengaged to have forward or reverse action. The specifications note the wrench as useful for carriage axle nuts. |
