Photo shows the range. Size as stated.

Carlyle's CCWFP015M is a 15mm combination spanner with a 6-point ring, made for rusty 15mm fixings, such as the brake and suspension bolts found under some older cars. The ring is set at a 15 degree offset and the open end has anti-slip jaws with radiused corners. Packed length 199 mm.

Good to know

• Why 6-point for brake and suspension work? Those bolts sit in road spray and often corrode. A 6-point ring pushes on the flats, so it's less likely to round a rusty head than a 12-point.
• Should I use the open end on a seized nut? No. Use the 6-point ring, after a good soak in penetrating oil, and pull steadily towards you.
• Is it right for the brake pipe unions? No, pipe unions need a flare nut spanner, which wraps round the soft pipe nut instead of gripping just two flats.

Which one?

For a full 6-point run the Carlyle 13 Piece 6 Point Combination Wrench Set 7mm to 19mm (CCW613M) goes from 7mm to 19mm; for 15mm pipe unions, the Carlyle 15mm x 17mm Flare Nut Wrench (CFNW1517M) is the tool.
