Types of Wrench Sets
There are two basic types of wrenches: electric-powered ones and manual, handheld ones. In this section, we will list the main types of handheld non-power wrenches.
- Monkey Wrench– This tool has been around for hundreds of years, although it’s not as popular to use now and has mostly been replaced with the appearance of the pipe wrench. A monkey wrench is alarge, bulky, adjustable wrench with a smooth surface, best forturning nuts and boltswithout causing harm to them.
- Pipe Wrench– Similar to a monkey wrench, this tool is also large, heavy, and has adjustable jaws but has asurface lined with teeth. This surface makes the pipe wrench ideal forgripping and turning things such as iron pipes and fittings with a rounded surface. The smart design of the adjustable jaw enables it to shrink or expand to the proper size. In addition, forward pressure on the handle results in the jaws clamping shut tighter for a better grip.
- Socket Wrench– A socket wrench, also known as aratchet wrench, is identified by having along, thin handle and a small, hollow socket attachment. Sockets are modifiers that adapt the wrench to the proper shape and size for tightening specific nuts, bolts, or fasteners. This tool is most often used in automobile repair and building construction.
- Allen Wrench– An Allen wrench, also known as ahex key, is anL-shaped metal bar equipped with a hexagonal headat each tip. This type of wrench is used to turn bolts and screws that have hexagonal shapes.
- Speed Handle– A speed handle is aspecialty wrench used to quickly loosen nutsuntil they’re off. The nut is first loosened with a socket wrench before the speed handle is used to remove it. Speed handles are typically not strong enough to break loose or tighten nuts.
- Lug Wrench– A lug wrench is a specific type of socket wrench used to loosen and tighten lug nuts on the wheels of vehicles. Lug wrenches can be identified by their shape, which may be L-shaped or X-shaped. A lug wrench often comes with aprying tipon one end which can be used to remove wheel covers that may be blocking the lug nuts from sight.
- T-Handle– This tool is essentially asocket attached to a handle in the shape of a T, used for leverage. This tool is most typically used to turntaps, hand reamers, or screw extractors.
