In this article, I'd like to discuss "What is 'adjustable wrench'". Let's look at what it is and how to respond to some frequently asked questions.
A quick answer is…
A wrench with one jaw which is fixed and another which is adjustable; the size is adjusted by a knurled screw.
An ‘adjustable wrench’ is a tool, which can be used to loosen or tighten a nut or bolt.
It has a "jaw" (the part where the nut or bolt fits), which is of adjustable size.
The ‘adjustable wrench’ works by turning a screw, which is usually located at the bottom of the head.
An ‘adjustable wrench’ can be adjusted to different settings, usually for size, to fit a variety of hexagonal nuts.
While ‘ordinary wrenches’ often can only be used on a particular size of nut, these wrenches can fit a much wider variety of sizes.

Which item is an adjustable wrench...
Adjustable wrenches, also known as crescent wrenches, are used to turn bolts, nuts, and other fasteners for installation (tighten) or removal (loosen).How are wrenches measured...
Standard wrenches are measured by the size of the item they’ll fit on. For instance, a ⅝-inch wrench works on nuts and bolts that are ⅝ of an inch big. Simple. Adjustable wrenches are a bit more complex though. Since they’ll work on items of various sizes, a single measurement won’t accurately convey the wrench’s abilities.I hope you liked this post.
