Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The 10-inch Bionic Wrench is a remarkable patented hybrid of an adjustable wrench with the ease of use of a pair of pliers. In addition, the genius of attacking a bolt/nut on all 6 flat sides removes the stress and strain on the corners of the bolt. This coupled with the superior gripping action of the jaws, allows the user to complete their work without the wrench slipping off and damaging the bolt. The design of the 10-inch Bionic Wrench multiplies your hand's gripping force, so you can more easily tighten/loosen bolts. You can develop ratchet-like speed by fully turning the 10-inch Bionic Wrench, release the grip while still on the bolt, reposition wrench, tighten grip-repeat until finished. The 10-inch Bionic Wrench covers 18 sized fasteners from 3/4-1 & 1/4" and from 19mm-30mm. Winner of 2005 Popular Mechanics Editor's Choice Award, the Chicago Atheneaum Award, The International Forum Design Award, and the reddot international design award. Quality Made in the USA.

2.0 out of 5 stars Seems like it should work, but WHERE?, January 28, 2007

By	MagicSkip "magicskip" (Marriottsville, MD) - See all my reviews

*Note: this review is based on the 8-inch version*
I received this as a gift without ever having heard of the bionic wrench. After I figured it out -- which was not as intuitive as it probably should be -- I thought it would make a good replacement for an adjustable end (crescent) wrench, and possibly easier than finding the right socket. As it is, I have tried several times to use the bionic wrench, each time unsuccessfully. Sometimes I can't get it in to where I need it, and have to get my adjustable. Other times I can't get enough grip on the handle (because it interferes with the part surface) while the business end of the wrench is on a bolt, and I need a socket. Oh, and the grip it gets on a bolt head is too dependent on your hand strength, kind of like a channel-lock, so I wouldn't even try it at times when I know I'll need to put some muscle into getting a bolt broken loose -- too much chance of stripping the head.

It seems like it should be a great little tool, like a self-adjusting adjustable crescent wrench. Maybe I've just had difficult applications for it? I dunno, I've tried it several times and just don't have a real use for it.

4.0 out of 5 stars a great gripper, September 26, 2009

I HAVE ONLY USED THIS TOOL A COUPLE OF TIMES SO FAR, BUT I WILL SAY THAT IT HAS BEEN A GREAT TOOL TO GRIP ONTO JUST ABOUT ANY SIZE BOLT. EVEN STRIP-OUT BOLT'S. THIS IS A VERY, GOOD TOOL TO HAVE IN YOUR TOOLBOX FOR ANY PURPOSE.
