1" AN wrench

[Bart]

Does anyone have a 1" AN wrench, or skinny 1" open end I can borrow for 5 minutes?

 

[Rusted]

Bicycle stores will have 1" flat wrenches like that for adjusting the old style headsets. Just and idea and maybe a source for a cheap one.

 

[Bart]

Good call, I may even have one of those laying around the garage.

why is it called an "an" wrench?

how slim do you need it to be. i have some slim wrenches but i dont know if they go that big.

Here is the description from SummitRacing:

Happy wrenching from Summit®.
Make plumbing your vehicle a breeze with these Summit® AN line
wrenches. Made from quality anodized aluminum, they include short
handles to avoid over-tightening, and are designed a special size to
provide a comfortable grip. Plus, the handles are stamped with the
wrench size for easy identification.


They work on these fittings.

One more thing, I've just used regular wrenches up to this point, but I have one fitting I need to move and it requires a very skinny wrench to break loose. I'm going to try the bicycle wrench before I break down and make one or order one of these.

Do the boys at Ben Hanks have one you could use?

 

[Bart]

Already called, but no bueno.

Just grind down a cheap 1 inch wrench and get on with it Or use your plasma
