How to Use Wrenches

Wrenches, as they come in all different shapes and sizes, the one that we utilize the most on a job site instead of carrying around a whole bunch of different size wrenches honest is an adjustable wrench. An adjustable wrench comes in very many shapes and sizes and openings. An adjustable wrench is designed like this and it comes with an adjuster wheel on it to make it go from the smallest size of an eighth inch up to an inch and a quarter in diameter for this wrench. Other wrenches go a lot bigger and a lot longer for more leverage. Depending on what it is that you're using it for, the application, commonly, in the homes that we've been doing a lot of work in, this is the size that we utilize the most on the job site as far as taking apart faucets, doing gas stove hook ups, taking out wire nuts that are old style in the older homes. Like I said, they're easy to put in your pouch and they come in various different sizes.
