🔍 Key Concepts

• How each type of wrench grips the nut or bolt (around it, on two sides, with an adjustable jaw, or using an extension) • Which wrench designs are best for tight, obstructed, or recessed spaces • The difference between standard hand wrenches and special-purpose wrenches for limited access

💭 Think About

• Think about which wrench can be used when you cannot get a full wrench head around the nut or bolt because something is blocking the way • Consider which option is specifically designed to work with an extension bar or ratchet to reach into cramped or recessed areas • Ask yourself: which of these is commonly used in combination with a socket set for hard-to-reach fasteners?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which wrench type is not a typical full-handled wrench, but more of an attachment or special head • Verify which wrench can be used with a ratchet or extension to reach confined spaces • Eliminate any wrench types that require direct, clear access around the nut or bolt head
