Spanner wrench Proline 36965, length 280 mm, single piece

Proline 36965 spanner wrench, length 280 mm, supplied as a single piece, is a hand tool designed for turning and tightening nuts and fittings that require a hooked or pin-type engagement. The tool is made from chromium-molybdenum steel with a forged, phosphated finish and a reinforced slogging head to withstand impact and provide reliable torque transfer. Its 280 mm length gives improved reach for recessed fasteners while remaining compact enough for workshop and field use.

Advantages

The spanner wrench features a forged construction for high strength and durability and a phosphated surface treatment for corrosion resistance. The reinforced slogging head allows safe use with controlled hammer blows when loosening stubborn fittings. Chromium-molybdenum steel provides a favorable balance of toughness and wear resistance, and the single-piece supply ensures consistent alignment and predictable performance without joints or assemblies that could loosen over time.

Suitable for

• Workshop maintenance and general mechanical repair
• Plumbing tasks involving hooked or pin spanner fittings
• Assembly and disassembly of machinery components with restricted access
• Situations requiring additional reach or controlled impact on fasteners

Key specifications

• Overall length: 280 mm
• Material: chromium-molybdenum steel
• Finish: phosphated
• Construction: forged, single-piece
• Head type: reinforced slogging head suitable for controlled hammer use

How to use

Place the hooked or pin engagement of the spanner wrench onto the nut or fitting so that the load is transferred through the body of the tool. Apply steady hand torque to turn the fastener; if additional force is required, use light, controlled hammer strikes to the slogging head while maintaining secure engagement. Avoid side loading and ensure the tool is correctly seated before applying impact to reduce the risk of slippage or damage to the fastener. After use, clean any debris and store the tool dry to help preserve the phosphated finish.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and eye protection when applying impact force. Select the correct size and engagement style for the fastener to avoid rounding or damage. Do not use the wrench on fasteners requiring precise torque values without a calibrated torque tool. Regularly inspect the tool for signs of wear, deformation, or damage before use.
