FAQs

What materials are the spanners made from?

The spanners are made from one-piece steel construction.

What is the purpose of the zinc-plated finish?

The zinc-plated finish provides rust resistance.

What sizes of nuts can this set accommodate?

The set fits 8mm x 9mm, 10mm x 11mm, and 12mm x 13mm securing nuts.

What is the purpose of the tommy bar?

The tommy bar provides increased leverage when tightening or loosening nuts.

Can the spanners be linked together?

Where is this tool most effective?

The slimline design makes it especially useful in confined spaces behind sinks and basins.

How should I clean the spanners after use?

Clean the spanners with a dry cloth to remove debris and moisture.

What should I do if the spanner doesn't fit the nut?

Check the nut size against the spanner sizes. If it doesn't fit, the set is not compatible with that nut.

Troubleshooting

Spanner doesn't fit the nut.

Check the nut size against the spanner sizes (8mm x 9mm, 10mm x 11mm, 12mm x 13mm). If the nut size is different, the set is not compatible.

Tommy bar doesn't provide enough leverage.

Apply penetrating oil to corroded nuts before attempting removal. Ensure the spanner is fully engaged with the nut before applying force.

Spanner slips off the nut.

Ensure the correct size spanner is being used. Apply even pressure to prevent slippage. Consider using a different type of wrench if the nut is severely damaged.
