Title: aluminium spanners
Post by: Big Mouse on April 01, 2014, 06:47:05 PM
Before I go taking pictures, does anyone have a need for some ally spanners? I have them in various sizes from -4 upto -18

Question:

What do you specifically need ally ones for?

Question 2:

Why?

They are used for ally fittings, like Speedflow, Earl's, etc. Ordinary steel spanners would round the fittings, ally is softer so doesn't mark them, a;so they are made for the exact size


From left: -6, -8, -16, -4 and -6, -6 and -8, -10 and -12 (2) and the big daddy -18

Funnily enough I'm just machining a whole bunch of -8 Oil filter housings at work at the moment.

Would love to have a reason to own these, but I'll just stick to my jubilee clips for now (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/sad.gif)

I'm interested, I've got a few of those fittings on my car.  

How much for the 4-6 and 6-8? (with postage)
