| Adjustable
or "Crescent" Wrenches: a Threat! |
| by Enrico Mora, TPM Online |
|
Crescent or adjustable wrenches lack the adjustment needed to provide a
good transmission of the strength applied to them. Right after ?adjusting?
one of those wrenches, as you start using it, it moves and you reach the
point where it slips and can even cause for the user to get the knuckles
hit hard surfaces around. The nuts and bolts get damaged, the tightness
is not reliable or effective either. |
