Facom Combination Ratchet Spanner Satin Chrome, 225mm Overall 17 mm

Stanley Combination Ratchet Spanner, 17mm Nominal Size, 225mm Overall Length - 467B.17

This combination ratchet spanner is a hand tool designed for fastening and loosening nuts and bolts in metric systems. It pairs an open-ended jaw with a ratcheting box end to allow continuous turning without repeated repositioning, making it suitable for workshop and on-site maintenance tasks across automation, electronics, electrical and mechanical environments.

Features and Benefits:

• 16-point ratcheting end offers fine engagement for minimal swing
  15° offset open end allows access in confined spaces
  Satin chrome finish resists surface corrosion and reduces glare
  225mm overall length delivers additional leverage when required

Applications

• Suitable for assembly and maintenance of electrical control panels
  Ideal for tightening machine-frame fasteners in automation cells
  Used for servicing electrical switchgear connections
  Can be used for component fitting in mechanical workshops

What material surface protects the tool in industrial settings?

The tool is supplied with a satin chrome finish which provides a protective metallic layer that reduces surface oxidisation and Visual glare during work.

How does the ratcheting mechanism affect access in tight areas?

The 16-point ratcheting profile requires smaller angular movement between engagements, permitting incremental turns where swing clearance is restricted.

Is the spanner suited for imperial fasteners or non-sparking environments?

The tool is metric only with a 17mm jaw and is not designed as a non-sparking tool, it should not be relied upon for use in atmospheres requiring non-sparking equipment.
