Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1: Can this wrench be used for plastic fittings?
A1: Yes, but apply with care. While it fits plastic fittings, ensure not to overtighten to avoid cracking or damaging plastic components.
Q2: Is this suitable for use with monobloc taps?
A2: This wrench is more suited for traditional basin taps and back nuts. A monobloc spanner may be better suited for monobloc tap installations.
Q3: What does SG Cast Iron mean?
A3: SG stands for “Spheroidal Graphite” or ductile cast iron, which is stronger and more impact-resistant than standard grey cast iron.
