Williams spanner wrench ?
« on: April 26, 2015, 05:50:03 PM »
I've picked up a couple of these because they were in descent shape. I'm curious to why the ones on ebay all have what I call a hefty price tag on them. One of them says its a snap on product.
Haven't snapped pics but the 2 I have are 471-A & 474.

Apparently Williams was bought by Snap-On back in 1993.

I could be wrong but I thought Williams, Bahco, an cdi tourque were snap ones industrial brands.
And I'm proud to be an American,
where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.
