Description: |
| A pivoted slotted cam and sliding block are the adjusting means for this adjustable "box end" wrench. Ron Geesin's THE ADJUSTABLE SPANNER notes the tool produced was a pocket wrench for bicyclists, called the CAMspanner.
A limited edition miniature of this wrench was produced in the U.S. for members of an antique tool collectors' club. |
