Title: Tell me more about Armstrong wrenches
Post by: Catch22! on October 17, 2021, 10:38:42 PM

I came across this Armstrong wrench in a box of car parts.  I see a few posts about Armstrong wrenches, but don't know anything about the company.

I don't know much.  I have a 12 inch adjustable by Armstrong.  It is the heaviest 12 inch I own.

The square shape indicates it was for a square nut or cap screw, quite possibly the set screw on a machine or the like.
