Who made this crowsfoot?

[bfm336]

Says S-20533 on it, was used by an aviation mechanic. Supposedly it was bought by the US gov but does anyone know by styling or model number who the manufacturer might be? Size is 2-7/16.

Thx.

Snap On I believe.

That is the typical Snap-on style for that kinda size, but strange it's not marked if it is indeed theirs.

Agreed. Originally based on styles thought that too, but they have versions stamped snap on that look like this if it were there's. Didn't know if anyone had used something similar "back in the day" and had definitive proof.

May be getting hoof and mouth disease here but SO tools

sold to the govt came with no warranty, and possibly no

normal catalog ID no. either. Just guessing on this one.

Tool definitely looks to be SO quality.

It's possible it could have been faced to access a hard to get to spot. But being 2 7/16 you'd think that nut or bolt would be out in the open.

On an aircraft, not necessarily...

Granco? They sold a lot to the government

Looks Identical to the SO ones we had in the Air Force. Mostly used on bulkhead connectors for stab or flap actuators. Absolutely no room on an F-16 stab actuator at the bulkhead. A crows foot was a must.

There's a reason it doesn't have the brand on it...most likely not retail sale.

That's interesting. Is the whole plane SAE?

Most aircraft are now, have always been, and will most likely remain so. Though there are a fair number of British built planes still out there with a few oddball fasteners.
