Laser 5752

Best price: £43.82 | Tools: 12 Sizes: 8-19mm

These extra length spanners – the 13mm was 15mm longer than its nearest rival and more than 50mm longer than most – allow extra pressure to be applied to a nut or bolt. That’s great if you have the space, and the tools can take it, too, as they were topped only by our winner on the torque rig. You pay for the extra length and two ends were oversized, but these remain a good buy for tough jobs.
