So you can use a crescent wrench on a socket......

doesn't make sense since the gripping surfaces are curved.
You'd need a knob on top to help align the socket to the bolt.

EXTREMELY dull push pin?

Yep,.. curved...

Whatever it is,.. I'm keeping it,.. and I'll probably end up with a cresent, or vicegrip on it someday....
It'd work in a pinch... :-?...


Push pin was good... ;D...

I've seen that somewhere before but not sure just where yet.
Will have to let my fertile mind ruminate on this for a bit.

That is made for holding the socket on the bolt by using your mouth - while your right hand holds the fender in place and your left hand assembles the flat washer, lock washer and nut.  Some folks add a bit of electric or duct tape on the flats to help avoid chipping your teeth. ;D

I have needed one of those on occasion......when I tried this with the long extension........it made me gag!

Poor man's impact wrench? Put a crescent wrench on it and while applying torque, bash it with a hammer?

just a thought

I can see how that would be the case.     :-?

Who made the tool ?  Any markings ?

Title: Re: Tool ID...
Post by Serowbot on 03/31/14 at 09:10:19

No markings...
It was stuck in a cr@p socket like this one, (which I can't recall buying either)...
I may have picked it up at a yard sale or sumthin'... :-/...

Well, it's not a part from a busted Sears Craftsman ratchet.
I took one of mine apart and it is not built the same at all.

Have you had the metal tested to see if it is from this solar system ?

Post by Dave on 03/31/14 at 10:49:10

OK.....I have given this some thought....and I think Versy is right.

I betcha it is the drive portion of a 3/8" ratchet wrench....and the handle body, pawls and parts for switching the ON/OFF direction are missing.  Somehow the pawls butted up against the center web.

I think it was on that multi-size socket because with an adjustable crescent and that socket you don't need metric tools  ;D

Its a pre-digital torque wrench manual calibrator adapter,  Alex........

Could it be part of an air wrench? Doesn't look like the black hardened metal that's in most air wrenches though. Carl
