OX Trade Ultra Wide Jaw Adjustable Wrench

The OX Trade ultra wide jaw adjustable wrench gives you a wide jaw opening in a slim head design, which makes it easier to get onto larger fittings and into tight spaces. The jaws are precision hardened for durability, and the extra thin jaw profile reaches into spots a bulkier wrench cannot.

Frequently Asked Questions

What sizes is this wrench available in?

This product is a variable option covering 6, 8, 10 and 12 inch sizes. Each size has the same ultra-wide jaw and slim head design. Choose the length that suits the fittings you work on, with the longer sizes giving more leverage.

Why choose an ultra-wide jaw?

An ultra-wide jaw opens wider than a standard adjustable wrench of the same length, so it can grip larger nuts and fittings. Combined with the slim head and extra thin jaw, it reaches fittings in tight spaces where a wider wrench body will not fit. It is a versatile tool for mixed fitting work. That makes it a useful tool to keep in the van for fittings you did not plan for.

Is the wrench hardened?

Yes. The listing states the wrench is precision hardened for durability. That keeps the jaws from spreading and rounding off under load, which is the most common failure on a cheap adjustable wrench. The hardened build gives it a longer working life on site.

How do I use an adjustable wrench properly?

Tighten the adjustment so the jaws sit snugly on the flats of the nut, then pull toward the fixed jaw so the load is on the solid side of the tool. Set the jaw to the right size for each fastener rather than leaving it loose, which stops the jaws slipping and rounding the nut.
