Description:

PETOL VALVE WHEEL WRENCHES are used to provide leverage on hand operated valve wheels. This series of wrenches permits a smooth snap hammer-action to make opening and closing stubborn valves easy. Each wrench will fit a variety of sizes and shapes of valve wheels. The special shaped opening in the wrench reduces the chance of slippage when working in overhead or crowded positions.

Specifications:

• Pattern: Double-end
• Cast or Forged: Cast
• Overall Length (approx.): 8"
• Weight: 15-1/4 oz.

Safe Practices And Procedures

1. Valve Wheel Wrenches should fit over the valve wheel rim completely. Make sure that the wheel rim is in contact with the top of the wrench opening when applying force.
2. Brace yourself firmly and pull rather than push when wrenching. (If necessary to push, do so with the flat of the hand rather than gripping around the wrench.)
3. Keep the wrench in the plane of the valve wheel rim when pulling. Pulling at an angle increases the chance of slippage.
4. Never apply excess leverage to a wrench by means of a "cheater bar."
5. Never strike wrenches with hammers or other objects.
6. Safety Goggles must always be worn by persons in any area where hand and powered tools are being used.
