Stanley Proto Announces Two New Heavy-Duty Wrench Lines
New wrenches shine in the toughest of industrial environments.
Conyers, GA June 27, 2006 - Stanley Proto has introduced two new lines of Engineers' Wrenches and Leverage Wrenches, and has also expanded its lineup of striking wrenches. By adding these new heavy-duty wrenches to its catalog, Proto will be offering more choices to users in heavy industries ranging from oil, gas, and mining, to shipyards and commercial construction. The wrenches are made for the roughest use in the highest torque applications.
Each of these wrench types has a different intended use. Open-end Engineers' Wrenches are designed to help users work faster, and include 15-degree head sets that allow quick repositioning of the wrench on the fastener. Their long lengths - up to 23-13/16 inches long - provide high leverage, and extend users' reach into hard to access locations. They come in 13 metric sizes with a black oxide finish.
Leverage Wrenches are for when users need even more leverage, or when they want to extend their reach even further. While the wrenches themselves range in length from 2 in. to 14 in., they're designed for use with detachable handles up to 33 in. long. Users will appreciate the combination of deep offset box heads and long handles during the initial breaking or final tightening of fasteners. They come in 11 metric sizes with 4 interchangeable handles.
Of course there are times when nothing but a hammer blow to a striking wrench will do the job, which is why Proto has also expanded its line of Straight Striking and Offset Striking wrenches. These box wrenches have handles with square ends that are designed to be struck with a hammer for the breaking or final tightening of high-torque fasteners. Proto has added 5 sizes to its line of Straight Striking wrenches and 15 to its Offset line.
