wrenches to go with my stahlwilles.

[William Payne]

I have both the metric and imperial sets of stahlwille open box 13 series wrenches. I really really like them but would like another set of wrenches that are longer to have the best of both worlds. For me I keep jumping between snap-on and stahlwille when it comes to hand tools and I could choose from the longer stahlwille 14 series of wrenches but they only come in metric and have an odd offset on the box end that im unsure about whether I would like. Or I could choose from the standard or long length snap-on wrenches, but my question there is, is the standard length snap-on long enough to make a nice set to go with my stahlwille for best of both worlds (stahlwille 19mm is 230mm where as snap-on 19mm is 279mm) Or would the long series be better or would I just find them tooo long (snap-on long series 19mm is 330mm).

I don't plan on getting more wrenches soon but it is something I plan on doing in the future.

I am just not fully convinced on what would be a good match with my stahlwilles.

I know a mechanic who everyday uses stahlwille wrenches and he himself has a long set of old britool wrenches for those times when a longer wrench is needed and at times when I have visited him I have seen him use both sets of wrenches on the same job he is working on.

Have you looked at the Stahlwille series 14 long combination wrenches?

I've got stahlwille openbox 13's as well as a set of the stabil deep ring spanners. To compliment them I got a set of Hazet 600n combination spanners, gives you a a bit more length.

We have some discontinued stock of the long AF 14 series Stahlwille wrenches. Please take a look at this link for details.

They won't last forever, some sizes are getting thin on the ground.

Best Regards,

Thanks for the link. I might buy a single spanner from a few various brand and see which ones I like to go with my stahlwille 13's. Then I know I will be comfortable both in feel and purchase choice.
