Any thoughts for what it's for ?
« on: June 11, 2022, 11:11:53 AM »
I have no thoughts on the wrench other than it's a multi tool.
No markings on tool. The square holes more like for square headed set screws to lock in place .

It is a spanner wrench with different wrench sizes. I've seen some similar for use on oil drain nuts.

Maybe a welder's tank wrench? Spanner for the gas bottle caps?

Maybe it's a old automotive hub tool I've seen some that kinda look like it.

Any number of possibilities.  I've seen similar wrenches that are, I believe, intended for commercial door closers.

It's a Hook Spanner or  Pin Spanner. The way the hook/pin seems rotated inward, maybe  it's a Collet Chuck Spanner. The regular Pin Spanner likes to slip from the hole in the chuck. If it's like the picture indicates, it'll hold the curve better

No matter how much you cut off, it's still too short

This is a "door closer adjustment wrench".  Fairly common item.  Google it or type it in ebay.
