Ratcheting Box Wrench with 4 popular wrench sizes in one tool.
4-in-1 BugWrench Setting Tool Standards AGAIN!
4-in-1 insulated box wrench Model BW-244 from BugWrench™ family of tools offers a lineworker a unique combination of 4 popular head sizes (1/2″, 5/8″, 9/16″ and 3/4″) in one handy wrench.
Each 4-in-1 Insulated Box Wrench has two separate Reversing Ratchet sizes on each end. These sizes are the most common on T&D apparatus and connectors.
Model BW-044 (shown above) is an ALL METAL wrench without an insulating handle and as such does not provide any insulation.
Part of Rauckman Utility BugWrench™ Line of products. See other models here!
The insulating BugWrench handle is formulated of a high strength and high dielectric polymer.
The handle is designed with a visual and physical indicator permanently molded (in a shape of a rib) in 2 positions on the handle. This rib provides an indication of the “Isolated Area” of the handle. Holding the wrench behind the appropriate rib, in the “Isolated Area” provides a 1,000 Volt Rating between the metal working end and the operator’s hand. Independent electrical tests were performed on a BW-223 wrench verifying that the electrical performance of the BugWrench handle far exceeds the standard published “Leakage Current” (at various voltages) and “Dielectric Strength” requirements.
A see-through port in the center of the handle to confirm that the two ends are not electrically connected.
Yet with the patented handle design and the metal-to-metal separation, the wrench has a Pull-Apart Strength of 3-5 times greater than other brands.
This BugWrench has heavy-duty drop-forged heads with built in reversing ratchet buttons.
The buttons are much easier to operate while wearing gloves, than the lever type reversing mechanism on other brand’s heads.
The heads are 12 point sockets for a precise & smaller travel for ease of movement in tight spaces. They also incorporate a higher resolution ratchet for smoother operation.
