And some wrenches are made for various trades to make there job easier

What is a speeder wrench?

You use a speed wrench, (or speeder wrench) in place of your ratchet handle that came with your socket set. It has an off-center grip that you rotate around the wrench shaft. Due to its length, you will usually be able to keep your hands and the wrench clear of the work area, and will be able to rotate the wrench 360 degrees without interference - allowing you to install or remove nuts and bolts much quicker than with a standard socket/ratchet set.
