Schraubspanner

A Schraubspanner, also known as a wrench, is a tool used to turn bolts and nuts. It consists of a handle and a jawed end that fits around the head of the bolt or nut. Schraubspanners are available in various sizes and types to accommodate different bolt and nut sizes and shapes. They are commonly used in automotive, plumbing, and general maintenance tasks.

There are two main types of Schraubspanners: open-end and box-end. Open-end Schraubspanners have a flat jaw that fits around the head of the bolt or nut, while box-end Schraubspanners have a square or hexagonal jaw that fits into a corresponding hole in the bolt or nut. Adjustable Schraubspanners have a movable jaw that can be adjusted to fit different sizes.

Schraubspanners are typically made of steel or plastic. Steel Schraubspanners are stronger and more durable, making them suitable for heavy-duty tasks. Plastic Schraubspanners are lighter and more affordable, making them ideal for general use. Some Schraubspanners are designed to be used with a ratchet, which allows for easier and more efficient turning.

Schraubspanners are an essential tool for many industries and hobbies. They are used in automotive repair to tighten and loosen bolts and nuts on engines and other components. In plumbing, Schraubspanners are used to install and remove pipes and fittings. In woodworking, they are used to assemble and disassemble joints. Schraubspanners are also commonly used in DIY projects and home repairs.
