Metric Ratcheting Split Box End Wrench - 18mm -

Part #: 87168

The 18mm Metric Ratcheting Split Box End Wrench model 87168 offers a versatile solution for professional technicians and mechanics working with fasteners in confined spaces. Its unique split-jaw design allows the wrench to open and encircle the fastener, providing the secure grip of a box wrench combined with the convenience of ratcheting action. This professional-grade tool is designed for situations where an open-end or flare nut wrench is typically the only option, streamlining tasks and improving efficiency.

Key Features

  • Split Box End Design: The innovative jaw splits open to surround the fastener, then closes securely to deliver full box wrench gripping power, minimizing slippage.
  • Ratcheting Action: Provides efficient and convenient ratcheting functionality, allowing for quick tightening or loosening without removing the wrench from the fastener.
  • Professional-Grade Construction: Manufactured in the U.S.A., ensuring quality workmanship and durability for demanding automotive and industrial applications.
  • Unconditional Lifetime Guarantee: SoK wrenches are unconditionally guaranteed against defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the tool.

Applications

This 18mm metric split box end wrench is ideal for a variety of tasks requiring precise control and access. It is particularly effective for working with hydraulic lines, brake lines, fuel lines, and other hose connections where a standard flare nut wrench would typically be used. Its ratcheting capability makes it suitable for rapidly installing or removing fasteners in tight engine compartments, undercarriages, or industrial machinery where swing room is limited.
