No metrinch are spanners designed to work on both metric and imperial nuts, great if you are in a hurry and the bolts aren't rusty, I bought my dad a set of them many years ago as they sounded like a good idea, they are one of the few tools I haven't pinched from his garage 😁

Brilliant bit of kit Bill. At that price you just can't go wrong.

I think we're unlikely to wear it out either.

Just gone on their site to find the one closest to mine is £450

Like you say vastly expensive now. When i bought them around 50 years ago they were dearbut the best quality around, as has been proven to me and you.
