Olympia Tool 01-018 18-Inch Adjustable Wrench

Nice and looks strong...

Good heavy weight wrench, should stand up to the job.

It's a bit too long but it handles most tasks easily.

This wrench is a monster. It's almost comical how large it is. I had to show it off to two people. Bought it for those odd farm jobs where you just need something big like a bale spear nut and large PVC pipe couplings. Where you might need a pipe wrench or two. This isn't so unwieldy.

There are a couple other wrenches on Amazon that are close to this price but after selecting this one, I find it to have been a good choice. Other reviews state the adjustment mechanism is a little loose and if you compare it to a $100 tool that is correct. It has a little play, meaning you can rotate the knurled knob about 1/8 inch (guessing here...) in that loose zone. Hardly enough for me to worry given that we're talking about a wrench that is made to connect to 2" nuts. A little play just doesn't figure into the equation. I used it to remove power line hardware from poles that had been taken down after 25yrs in service and in the weather. The extra leverage of the 18" made a huge difference. I couldn't move those square nuts with my existing 10" adjustable at all. BTW - those nuts were 'rough' zinc coated and I observe they are 'less square' than the wrench jaws; again the play doesn't matter much. So, you get what you pay for right? You demand perfection in the movement and perfect metal? Buy the $100 wrench. If you use this once in a while and are cost conscious this is a good choice. I did find a wrench at the local Menards in this same price range, but it was of noticeably lower quality.
