🔍 Key Concepts

• Common tools used in firefighting equipment aboard vessels • The specific tool designed to fit fire hose couplings and hydrant fittings • Differences between general-purpose wrenches and specialty wrenches

💭 Think About

• Think about which tool is commonly found next to fire stations and fire hoses on a ship • Consider which option is designed to quickly tighten or loosen hose couplings with lugs or ears, not nuts or bolts • Ask yourself which of these wrenches is a standard item in marine fire-fighting gear, rather than a normal workshop tool

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which wrench type is specifically associated with fire hose and hydrant couplings • Eliminate tools mainly used for nuts, bolts, or round pipe rather than lugged hose couplings • Picture the equipment in a shipboard fire station and recall the name of the standard coupling wrench kept there
