At the risk of being sill why not measure across the flats of a nut? That will tell you if the range of adjustment is sufficient. |

At the risk of being sill why not measure across the flats of a nut? That will tell you if the range of adjustment is sufficient. 28mm compression nuts are all different sizes depending on maker, that is why I asked if anyone is actually using one of these in pipe fitting. Will it fit all nuts? Bahco tools are a quality make and nice to use. I think they are cheap for what they are. Anone use the Magnussun tools? I saw these in B&Q and they look quality products. The quick adjustable, adjustable spanner looks good and easy to engage and disengage using a quick slide mechanism rather than a jamming knurled nut. I hate jamming adjustable spanners. Well thought out easy to use tools like that I like. |
