it can be turned around Yes, there is an offset.
It's true, however. The heads are bent at about a 15-degree angle. They probably put that image up to make it difficult to tell what's going on. I assumed and hoped it would be straight when I purchased it. But it's a tough nut to crack.
No, the quality is still excellent, but there is no longer any availability.
Selected User Reviews For Stanley Proto JSBV1618 Double Box Racheting Spline Wrench 1/2 X 9/16
I was looking for a that I had misplaced at work. (I work in a compact loader assembly plant and use a 9/16 wrench most of the time and a 1/2 wrench on occasion, so having a combo wrench in my pocket has been ideal. ) This wrench's description is deceptive. It claims that the heads are 0 offset, which is incorrect. Please see the photos in the attachment. By all means, it's still a great wrench; after all, it's proto! I'll definitely keep it in mind for future additions to my collection. However, if you're looking for a straight 1/2, this isn't the place to be. Try the other one I mentioned for a 9/16 combo wrench. I've already placed an order for two more of those to keep on hand!.
I use it on our Travel Trailer's batteries, and it's fantastic!.
However, I volunteer with an animal rescue organization that hosts adoption events on a regular basis, where we set up over 100 walk-in adoption stations. For the weekend, he'll be kept in kennels. Because some kennel clamps have 1/2 inch nuts and others have 9/16 inch nuts, I can now tighten both with one tool. Changing sockets with my portable electric impact driver is still faster, but only by a small margin.
When I first opened the package, I was disappointed to discover that both ends are angled, but this does make it easier on the hands. br>br>The ratchet is extremely strong and works well. The splines have a good grip and don't slide around. When you pull on a fastener with the handle at an angle, the splines on the fastener will twist unless you compensate in some way.
This little badass wrench is a miracle for me because I work in millright construction. My preferred instrument!.
I really like this.
Excellent wrench that I would strongly recommend.
