86907 758 Adjustable Wrench, 8-inch Adjustable Wrench for Metric and SAE

I've never been much of an adjustable wrench or pliers kind of guy - always grabbing a handful of combination wrenches for that just perfect fit on the fastener. Maybe I'm getting old and lazy, but these beautifully made adjustable wrenches (I purchased a 6" to 12" set) have become my 'go-to tool', and are used daily. They are American made, well finished, and very tight and precise; not at all like the sloppy `nut-rounders' that I've had in the past. The finish is a grippy, media blast that is very attractive, and won't flake off like polished chrome, or look horrible after a couple of uses like the clear coat on some other brands (Channellock to name one.) They also have etched gradations on the jaws to get you in the ballpark when it comes to fastener size. It may be gimmicky, but I do find myself using it. Of the set, the six-inch sees the most use; pretty much replacing most of my wrenches up to about 9/16", and it sure beats the pocket full of metric and SAE wrenches that I used to carry around. My next purchase will have to be the four-incher. Overall, great American made tools that I would recommend to anyone. -Tom

La poignée est tordue et non alignée par rapport à la mâchoire de la clé à molette (voir photo). C'est étonnant pour une marque comme RIDGID qui bénéficie d'une bonne réputation. La clé a été retournée.

La qualità si paga, e spesso è eterna.

Acabamento muito bom, precisa e muito firme. Gostei muito, que comprei 6

Adjustable wrenches have a stigma but are often indespensable in tricky situations. A bad one is a liability though. This is a very good one though, so worry not. Tight tolerances and stays at the set size. Quality finish and well designed, at a good price. I've used many brands over the years, this is definitely one of the best, and better than some of a much higher price. It's also made in the USA!
