Open-End and Ring Wrench Dedra 46 mm model 1468

Combination open-end and ring wrench Dedra 46 mm model 1468 is a single-piece hand tool designed for applying torque to hexagonal nuts and bolts with a 46 mm width across flats. The tool combines an open-end jaw for quick engagement and a closed ring end for secure, slip-resistant contact. Made from solid metal, the wrench is intended for workshop, garage and maintenance use where a robust 46 mm spanner is required.

Advantages

The one-piece construction ensures efficient torque transfer and reduced flex under load, while the ring end provides full contact around fasteners to minimise rounding. The open-end side permits easier access in confined spaces and rapid repositioning on the fastener. The metal surface finish resists common workshop wear and simplifies cleaning after use. Its single-size design gives clear compatibility with nuts and bolts specified for 46 mm across flats.

Suitable for

• Automotive repairs and servicing where 46 mm fasteners are used
• Assembly and disassembly of mechanical components requiring a 46 mm spanner
• Industrial maintenance tasks involving large bolts
• Household heavy-duty mechanical or plumbing jobs with 46 mm fittings

Key specifications

• Type: combination wrench (open-end and ring)
• Working size: 46 mm across flats
• Construction: single-piece solid metal
• Ends: open-end jaw and closed ring end for full contact
• Intended use: manual tightening and loosening of hexagonal fasteners

How to use

Select the 46 mm wrench and engage the appropriate end on the nut or bolt. For quick repositioning or access in tight spaces, use the open-end side and reposition as needed. For higher torque and reduced risk of rounding, place the closed ring end fully around the fastener and apply steady pressure in the required direction. Avoid using the wrench with excessive force beyond manual effort or using cheater bars, which can damage the tool or fastener. Keep the contact surfaces clean to ensure secure engagement.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the wrench before use for deformation or wear, and use appropriate personal protective equipment when working in workshops. Store in a dry place to limit corrosion and periodically clean and lightly oil contact areas to maintain reliable performance.
