Description of ๐ง Cal Van Tools 450 Access Wrench: Reach Every Tight Spot with Ease
Gear driven to gain easy access to tight areas where a box type wrench would not be practical. Dramatically reduce time needed to remove fasteners in awkward areas. Comes in a set of 5 (10mm,12mm,13mm,14mm,15mm) w/blow molded case. Includes adapter for use with 3/8: sockets. A real time saver.
This wrench is ideal for small engines in imported compact vehicles. Some sports cars don't allow access to all areas inside the engine crankcase, so you have to make compromises with a turn-on key. Nice mechanical tool.
Pros
Significantly reduces the time required to remove fasteners in tight spaces
Rubbish. I bought them because the body is metal and not plastic like other brands. I tried loosening a few screws (the average rider can't get in there) that weren't too tight. The tool is in there. Now you can't even manually spin a full turn before it gets stuck and jams. At least he had a good case.
So far, so good. Much cheaper than the mainstream brand that most have probably seen. If it's not obvious, this kit also includes an adapter so you can use it with whatever 3/8 drive slots you have. So you're not just limited to the five wrench sizes that come in the kit. The adapter has a 13mm hex shank that fits a green wrench and a standard 3/8 screwdriver on the other end.
Pros
Gear drive for easy access to hard-to-reach places where a box wrench is impractical.
