2-1/8" Striking Face Box Wrench
The Gray Tools 66868 is a professional hand wrench built for heavy-duty fastening tasks. Its 12-point box end fits 2-1/8" hex fasteners securely. The 45-degree offset head provides clearance around obstructions. Forged from premium tool steel, it is made for mechanics and industrial technicians who strike wrenches to break loose stubborn bolts.
45° Offset Head and Striking Block
The 45-degree offset design lets the user apply force at an angle, improving access in tight spots where a straight handle would hit surrounding parts. A large, robust striking block is integrated into the handle end, engineered for maximum safety and surface contact when hit with a hammer. The precision broached opening ensures a tight, secure fit on the fastener, reducing the risk of rounding corners during high-torque applications.
Black Oxide Finish and ANSI Compliance
The wrench features a corrosion-resistant black oxide finish that protects the tool steel in harsh shop environments. It meets ANSI standards for dimensional accuracy and performance. Before ordering, verify that your fasteners are exactly 2-1/8" hex size and that a 12-point drive suits your application. Confirm there is enough swing room for the offset handle and striking clearance in your specific workspace.

Questions about this item
Will the 12-point box opening on the 66868 need recalibration or replacement after heavy striking use?
The forged premium tool steel and precision broaching are built for durability; no recalibration is required, and the opening retains its fit through repeated impact.
What stops me from torquing the 45-degree offset head continuously on a large fastener?
The limiting factor is the physical strength of the 12-point broach and the operator's ability to strike accurately; the wrench itself has no internal torque-limiting mechanism.
Does the black oxide finish on the 66868 get hot or make the handle slippery during all-day striking work?
The corrosion-resistant black oxide finish does not generate heat; the striking block absorbs impact, and the offset head keeps hands clear of the workpiece.
