This is something I have never seen before! Maybe useful for those hard to reach parts:

Just ordered a set - the number of times I have tried to hold onto a nut with two fingers whilst trying to get the bolt threaded .........................

Well they arrived and are just as described. I panicked when I first tried one as I my fingers seemed too small and the spanner quickly fell off. Fortunately I found a rubber insert was supplied (you can see it in the boxed middle spanner above) and this ensures a perfect fit and grip. Great product although it does warn you not to use a power driver on the opposite end for obvious reasons

i havnt gotten around to ordering these yet. Do they go up to 1/2"

Sizes are 1/4, 5/16, 11/32, 3/8, 7/16 inches (metric ones are: 5.5, 7, 8, 10, 13mm). I assume they feel anything larger can be held between two fingers.

What torque do they go up to?
