Tough HGV brake caliper wrenches
Tuesday 05 September 2023
Two new additions have been added to the existing Laser Tools’ HGV brake caliper wrench range: the 30mm size (part number 8537) and the 21mm version (part number 8538). These are all sturdy 3/4" drive brake caliper wrenches for releasing and refitting brake caliper mounting bolts on commercial vehicles. The caliper mounting bolts are tightened to very high torque figures and these slogging wrenches, all designed with two impact striking faces, are designed to get the bolts loose quickly and easily.
These wrenches are all a 6-point single-hex design and manufactured from S45C steel (hardness HRC 38-42), with a black phosphate finish. Designed to be used with a heavy hammer, the combination of wrench and hammering action provides a powerful and effective method for tackling tough or stubborn fasteners. Additionally, they can be used with a 3/4" drive for tightening, and if using a torque-wrench, a handy torque correction-factor formula is etched onto the side of the wrench.
The full range from Laser Tools:
21mm — 8538
22mm — 7340
24mm — 7341
26mm — 7342
27mm — 7343
30mm — 8537
In the HGV workshop environment, these brake caliper wrenches are valuable tools in situations where conventional wrenches may not be sufficient to tackle the task at hand. Now available for purchase from your Laser Tools stockist and online retailers.
