Looking to get a set of crowfoot wrenches. The only ones I have are some very rough cheap ones I got at a flea market type place about 20 years ago.
Looking at Tekton US made sets.
They have a regular type and a flare type.
Seems to me that maybe the regular ones are better for high torque, but I can’t imagine that any is really great for that.
Seems to me that the flare type will be worlds more useful, torque limitations aside.
Which would you buy and why?
They also make sets that go to 19mm, and sets that go to 24-27mm. I do encounter those larger bolts occasionally, but again, can’t fathom where a crowfoot would support the torque needed for such large fasteners. So are they worthwhile to have that large?
