Channellock - Usa 806W Adjustable Wrench - Chrome, 6-inch / 150mm

Used for trade, paid more for better quality. Quick delivery & works well so far. All Channellock tools l have are great quality. Why so quick with review?

Read most online reviews and they'll tell you that Irega in Spain makes some great adjustable wrenches, and they're correct. These wrenches may say Channellock, but they're made by Irega and the quality is the same. Cute isn't a great way to describe tools, but this qualifies. The size is diminutive, but the quality is there. It's got a wide enough jaw to be useful, and is a handy EDC tool for odds and ends.

Why so quick for review for a tool l hope to keep 20+ yrs in trade. l have several Channellock tools all of good quality & this fits well with tasks require. Prompt delivery

I am impressed by this 6" ChannelLock wrench. The jaws close perfectly even and the sides of the jaws are perfectly matched in machining. The adjusting screw moves easily and smoothly and only a minuscule amount of slack. Feels very precise in the adjustments. Slightly better quality than a USA made Craftsman Professional 6" adjustable from 15 years ago. The handle has a nice wide flange along the edges to distribute the pressure on the hand. What impressed me as much as the great fit and machining is how wide they open while still being compact--about 1"/25mm. All surfaces are nicely smooth. And the entire wrench is more than beefy enough to handle anything you would use a 6" wrench on. Nice to have opening scales in 1/16" and mm on the base of the jaws. The jaws taper from a thick base to about half that thickness at the points. Unlike some other brands there are no rough finished surfaces. All surfaces are a fine matte finish (forged that way?) or machined flat and smooth. The entire tool seems to demonstrate excellent quality without being pretentious in looks or price. I used this on some 3/8" nuts and bolts and the jaws adjust down firmly and perfectly parallel and even for a nice tight fit that does not bung up the nut corners. Very handy size for those smaller around the house or automotive tasks. Overall, this ChannelLock wrench is noticeably better quality than older USA-made Craftsman or Crescent or Husky wrenches. I have used those brands for many decades but I will be buying ChannelLock from now on. It is made in Spain, as many good quality tools are. Nice it is not China! So many manufacturers have moved/off-shored to China or severely downgraded quality on their line of tools. I am pleased to discover ChannelLock is committed to quality and is at least using a dependable European source rather than China. The wrench is exactly as described in the listing and arrived the next day. I am very happy with the terms and fulfillment.

Channellock is one of my favorite brands. As one would expect from this company, the tool is well made and has a nice finish. I am quite sure that the material used in its production is of a superior quality, and is covered by Channellock’s lifetime guarantee. This should give one the peace of mind that the tool will not give up on you as has happened to me with cheaper products. I would gladly recommend.
