Has anyone seen a ratchet spanner with the ratchet on an *open* end of
a spanner (rather than the box end which is common)?

I have just the job for a 22 mm version...if it exists!

It looks like most sets only go up to 19mm.
If you have a full 1/6 swing on the wrench, these will work for you.


Thank you and all the others. I love this group!
I am glad that I was not crazy and that such things actually exist.
Today I saw one like the Toptul AEAT in our local Lordco. They did not
have 22 mm and would order one - for $76!!!

I think in the end I shall manage with what I got but I shall keep my
options open - now that I know there are some.

BTW someone suggested a crow's foot wrench but I don't think it would
work.

I don't think they make a 22mm line wrench, but you could look.
They're used for brake and hydraulic lines.

Winnie's style, half Lordco's price.
