Product Information

Commonly made of steel tubes, the box spanner is typically used for removing spark plugs. They normally feature a six-sided ring-type head that fits the nut that has been pressed out of the steel tube during the manufacturing process. They are turned using a T-bar passed through the two holes in the middle. 6. Combination Spanner It is very important to use the right tool in the right manner. Here are some important tips for handling some of the most common types of spanners.

Remove the electrical connection box cover and use a light cloth to make sure no water is present. Reconnect the cable wires as shown on your photo or diagram. Test the New Pump Once in position and the washers are in place, tighten the connection nuts on the inlet and outlet. It’s best to do this by hand until finger tight so that you can feel that the nuts have screwed on to the threads correctly and have not cross-threaded. Once finger tight you can then tighten with a wrench. The basic rules however remain the same and if you are struggling with an old spanner which does not fit properly, please use the correct tools for the job. It really does make life so much easier. On one end of this spanner, is an open-end spanner, and on the other end ring spanner is made. At both these ends, the spanners are of equal size. Replacing a central heating pump can sometimes be a little awkward because of its position in the airing cupboard or similar.These spanners are made for those nuts which do not have holes on their periphery. There are no faces on these nuts. Thus, the pin of this spanner gets fixed in the hole and performs the function of revolving it for opening or tightening it. 8. Adjustable Spanner

Higher-quality spanners are typically made from chromium-vanadium alloy tool steels and are often drop-forged. They are frequently chrome-plated to resist corrosion and for ease of cleaning. Hinged tools, such as pliers or tongs, are not generally considered wrenches in English, but exceptions are the plumber Spanners (pipe wrench in British English) and Mole Spanners (sometimes Mole grips in British English). Spanners are usually employed for gripping objects and turning fasteners. A vast majority of the spanners rely on manual operations for functioning. For Example, the slide style is more suited to rapid motions. A toolkit without a spanner is very hard to even imagine. There are a variety of spanners available in the market. Be it double-end spanner or an adjustable spanner, each has its utility. Spanners are primarily used for turning fasteners such as nuts and bolts. This tool is also known as wrench in different parts of the world. It is a bunch of small-sized single-end spanners. Spanners of different sizes are tied together for tightening or opening small nut bolts. 11. Allen KeyAgain, don’t over-tighten with the wrench as this may damage the threads.
