Double-Ended Metric Wrench
The Ampco WO-17X19 is a nonsparking open-end wrench sized 17 mm and 19 mm for metric fasteners. It suits maintenance crews in refineries, chemical plants or grain facilities where ferrous tools could ignite flammable atmospheres.
Aluminium Bronze Construction
The aluminium bronze alloy eliminates sparking on impact while retaining strength for torque applications. The material is non-magnetic and corrosion resistant, so the tool survives harsh chemical exposure without degrading or contaminating sensitive workpieces.
15-Degree Offset Heads
Each head features a 15-degree offset that clears knuckles and allows engagement in tight pipe runs or valve clusters. The one-piece forging and rounded profiles distribute load evenly across flats, reducing rounding risk on expensive stainless or brass hardware.

Questions about this item
Does the aluminum-bronze alloy on the 17 mm and 19 mm jaws wear faster than steel wrenches?
Aluminum bronze is softer than steel, so the jaws will show wear sooner under heavy daily use, but the non-sparking property remains intact.
What stops me from applying maximum torque on the 15-degree offset heads?
The 15-degree offset gives knuckle clearance, yet the aluminum-bronze material yields at lower torque than hardened steel, so the wrench itself is the limiting factor.
Does the one-piece aluminum-bronze construction get hot or transmit vibration during all-day use?
The solid alloy conducts heat quickly, so the handle feels warm in hot environments, and vibration transfers directly to the hand without damping.
