Review on Bahco 31 US Alligator Adjustable by Bruce Marable

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great tool for ship engineers.

I am a marine engineer as are many who have reviewed this key here. I used and actually tested this key extensively during my last contract and it turned out to be exactly what most reviews say! The wrench is thin but very strong and strong, easy to place in many places where normal wrenches don't fit. I worked with a crew that rarely, if ever, bought their own wrench or other tool for that matter, always ended up with proprietary wrenches and was a chore to work with. Cheap Chinese ones have to be reconfigured again and again after loosening nuts or bolts once, and often they jam in a certain place and you have to loosen the threaded part to get working again. All that changed for me with this wrench, it saved so much time and effort and in my opinion it should be every decent marine engineer's personal tool. The alligator side of the wrench was comparatively less useful to me, but it has really tough teeth and should work well with pipes and anything else that might fit.

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • boring packaging
