E-Type Double-End Box Wrench, 16x22mm, 205mm Length, Matte Finish
Brief Overview
This is a classic E-type (European-style) double-ended box wrench built for professional mechanics and industrial technicians who demand durability and precision. Both ends feature six-lobe internal ring profiles—16mm on one end, 22mm on the other—giving you two fastener sizes in a single, compact tool. The matte chrome-vanadium steel construction resists corrosion and wear, while the shallow recessed center channel reduces hand fatigue during extended use. At 205mm overall length, it strikes the ideal balance between leverage and accessibility in tight engine bays and equipment compartments. Stock precision box wrenches in complementary sizes to offer customers a complete fastener solution, or pair this with E-type wrenches in standard finishes to expand your product range.
Key Features
- Dual-Size Efficiency: 16mm and 22mm closed ends eliminate the need to carry multiple tools for common fastener combinations.
- Six-Lobe Star Profile: Internal ring geometry prevents rounding of fastener edges—critical for high-torque or corroded bolt removal.
- Matte Chrome-Vanadium Steel: Superior hardness and corrosion resistance compared to standard carbon steel; maintains sharpness under repeated impact loading.
- Offset Ring Design: Slight angular offset from the handle plane allows wrench to sit flush against nuts and bolts without striking surrounding components.
- Stamped Size Markings: Clear, durable size identification stamped near each ring end for quick tool identification in busy shops.
- Compact 205mm Length: Ideal for confined spaces; long enough for adequate leverage without excess bulk.

- Plumbing & HVAC: Tight-access fitting work where compact length and precision grip are non-negotiable.
- Field Technicians: Portable toolkit staple for professionals working on-site who cannot afford tool loss or failure.
Value Proposition for Distributors
Stock this wrench as a high-confidence item. The 16×22mm combination hits a sweet spot in fastener popularity; pair it with smaller E-type alternatives to offer customers a graduated toolkit. Matte finish and chrome-vanadium construction command a modest price premium over basic carbon steel, protecting your margin while delivering professional-grade performance that keeps customers returning. This is a workhorse tool—reliable, affordable, and endlessly replaceable.
