Milwaukee 200mm wide adjustable wrench. (48227508)

Description

Genuine Milwaukee · Part no. 48227508

Milwaukee's 48227508 is a 200mm adjustable spanner with an extra wide jaw that opens to 38mm, in a slim head designed for confined spaces. It has parallel jaws, a precise adjusting screw that holds its setting, lasered inch and millimetre markings, a lanyard hole and chrome plating; it weighs 0.40 kg.

Good to know

• What is a 38mm jaw good for? Large nuts and fittings such as plumbing unions, big locknuts and pipe fittings that a standard 200mm adjustable can't open far enough for.
• Can it undo a hub or driveshaft nut? It may open wide enough, but those nuts are far too tight for any adjustable; use a socket and breaker bar.
• How do I use it so it doesn't slip? Close the jaw firmly on the flats and pull so the load goes into the fixed jaw, keeping the head square to the nut.

Which one?

For smaller nuts in tight spots, the Milwaukee 150 mm Adjustable Wrench (4932499518); a longer handle for more leverage comes with the Carlyle 250mm Adjustable Wrench (CAW10).
