FAQs

What material are these spanners made from?

They are forged from chrome vanadium steel, which is known for its strength and durability.

What does 'HI-TORQ' mean for the ring ends?

HI-TORQ refers to Draper's design for the ring ends, which provides a more secure grip on the fastener, reducing the chance of slippage and damage to the fastener head.

What standards do these spanners meet?

They are manufactured in accordance with DIN3113 specifications, an international standard for hand tools.

What are the included sizes in this set?

The set includes four spanners with the following sizes: 11 x 13mm, 13 x 15mm, 14 x 17mm, and 19 x 22mm.

Why is the ring end shaped like a 'half moon'?

The 'half moon' or offset shape is designed specifically to work around obstructions, allowing access to fasteners in tight or confined spaces where a straight spanner would not fit.

Are these spanners suitable for everyday use or just specific tasks?

They are ideal for specific tasks requiring access in confined spaces. For general-purpose wrenching, standard spanners might be more versatile, but these are invaluable for specialized access.

How should I care for these spanners to ensure longevity?

Clean them after use with a dry cloth, store them in their wallet in a dry environment, and inspect them for damage periodically. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Spanner slips on fastener.

Ensure you are using the correct size spanner. Check that both the spanner's HI-TORQ ends and the fastener are clean and free from debris. Apply pressure steadily to avoid sudden jerks.

Difficulty fitting spanner due to extreme obstruction.

While designed for tight spaces, some obstructions may still be too severe. Try rotating the spanner or fastener slightly, or consider alternative access tools if available. Ensure the correct spanner size is selected.

Spanner shows signs of rust.

Wipe away any surface rust with a fine-grade steel wool or a rust remover. Clean thoroughly and apply a light coat of oil to the surface for protection. Store in a dry place.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent for working in very tight and confined spaces.
  • Durable construction with hardened chrome vanadium steel.
  • HI-TORQ ring ends provide superior grip.
  • Corrosion-resistant satin chrome finish.
  • Meets international DIN3113 standards.

Cons

  • Limited to the specific sizes included in the set.
  • The offset design may not be necessary or optimal for all tasks.
  • Sold loose, requiring separate storage if the wallet is not preferred.
  • Ring spanners generally offer less adjustability than open-ended spanners.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a hand tool set and requires no setup beyond selecting the appropriate size spanner for the task. Ensure the spanner fits snugly onto the fastener head.

Compatibility: The spanners are designed to fit standard metric hex (6-point) and bi-hex (12-point) fasteners within their specified sizes. Always confirm the fastener size before use.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: After use, wipe the spanners clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove grease and dirt. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  2. Storage: Store the spanners in the provided wallet or a dedicated tool organizer to protect the finish and prevent loss. Keep them in a dry environment to prevent rust.
  3. Inspection: Periodically inspect the spanners for any signs of damage, such as cracks, chips, or excessive wear on the ring ends. Discontinue use if damage is found.
