Roughneck Multi-Purpose Bar Set - 5 Piece

Utility bars typically have more specialized ends for scraping and finer prying tasks, while wrecking bars are designed for heavier demolition and nail removal with a broader, stronger claw.

While it can be used for some light prying, its primary design is for precise positioning. For heavy demolition, use the dedicated wrecking bars.

Yes, the durable construction and variety of functions make them suitable for various professional trades and demanding job site conditions.

After use, clean the bars thoroughly, dry them completely, and store them in a dry environment. Applying a light coat of oil periodically can also help prevent rust.

The set includes: 2 x Utility bars (178mm/7in and 381mm/15in), 1 x Aligning bar (610mm/24in), and 2 x Wrecking bars (457mm/18in and 305mm/12in). Additionally, 2 x Traditional Wrecking Bars (300mm/12in x 1/2in Hex and 450mm/18in x 5/8in Hex).

For delicate surfaces, caution should be exercised. Using a utility bar with a thin edge might be more suitable for light prying on less robust materials, but always test in an inconspicuous area first or use a protective barrier.

Ensure a firm grip on the handle and position the bar's prying end securely against the material. For better leverage, use a longer bar or a fulcrum point if possible.

Try using a bar with a thinner or more specialized end profile (e.g., utility bar vs. wrecking bar). Apply steady, consistent pressure. For wood, consider making a small cut or slot with a utility knife to help the bar gain purchase.

Clean off any rust with a wire brush or steel wool. Apply a light coating of oil (e.g., WD-40 or mineral oil) to the metal surfaces and wipe off excess. Store in a dry place.
