A wrench (or spanner outside of North America) is a tool used to provide grip and mechanical advantage in applying torque to turn objectsâusually rotary fasteners, such as nuts and boltsâor keep them from turning. In Commonwealth English (excluding Canada), spanner is the standard term.
A self-tightening wrench with either a chain or strap of metal, leather, or rubber attached to a handle, used to grip and turn smooth cylindrical objects (such as automotive oil filters). It relies entirely on friction between the strap or chain and the object to be manipulated.
