in woodworking, metalworking, and other similar trade and hobby tasks. Most are hand tools, made of a case hardened steel bar of rectangular, square, triangular, or round cross-section, with one or more surfaces cut with sharp, generally parallel teeth.
Box Wrench - is a tool used to provide grip
and mechanical advantage in applying torque to turn objectsusually rotary fasteners, such as nuts and boltsor keep them from turning.
Flaring tool is a type of compression fitting used
with metal tubing, usually soft steel, ductile (soft) copper and aluminum, though other materials are also used. Tube flaring is considered to be a type of forging operation, and is usually a cold working procedure. Flat Screwdriver with a flat wedge- shaped tip that fits into a slot in the head of a screw.
Claw Hammer - a hammer with one side of the
head split and curved, used for extracting nails.
Ball Peen Hammer - a hammer with a rounded
end opposite the face. Vice Grip - Locking pliers, mole grips (mole wrench) or vise-grips are pliers that can be locked into position, using an over-center action.
Side Cutter Plier - Diagonal pliers (or
wire cutters or diagonal cutting pliers or diagonalcutters) are pliers intended for the cutting of wire (they are generally not used to grab or turn anything). The plane defined by the cutting edges of the jaws intersects the joint rivet at an angle or "on a diagonal", hence the name.
Electrical Plier - are a type of pliers used
byelectricians and other tradesmen primarily for gripping, twisting, bending and cutting wire and cable.
Vernier Caliper - a small movable graduated scale
for obtaining fractional parts of subdivisions on a fixed main scale of a barometer, sextant, or other measuring instrument. Copper Tube -is most often used for supply of hot and cold tap water, and as refrigerant line in HVAC systems. There are two basic types of copper tubing, soft copperand rigid copper. Copper tubing is joined using flare connection, compression connection, or solder.
Wire Stripper - s a small, hand-held device used
to strip the electrical insulation from electric wires.
Mechanical Plier -are a hand tool used to hold
objects firmly, possibly developed from tongs used to handle hot metal in Bronze Age Europe. They are also useful for bending and compressing a wide range of materials.
Long Nose Plier -(also known as pointy-nose
pliers, long-nose pliers, pinch-nose pliers or snipe-nose pliers) are both cutting and holding pliers used by artisans, jewellery designers, electricians, network engineers and other tradesmen to bend, re-position and snip wire. Philip Screw Driver - A screwdriver having a cross-shaped tip rather than the rectangular tip of a standard (flat-blade) screwdriver.
Micrometer - a gauge that measures small
distances or thicknesses between its two faces, one of which can be moved away from or toward the other by turning a screw with a fine thread.
Pipe Wrench - is an adjustablewrench/spanner
used for turning soft iron pipes and fittings with a rounded surface. The design of the adjustable jaw allows it to lock in the frame, such that any forward pressure on the handle tends to pull the jaws tighter together.
Soldering Iron - a tool used for melting solder and
applying it to metals that are to be joined. Open-End Wrench - a wrench with jaws having a fixed width of opening at one or both endsof the handle.
Tin Cutter/Shears - a cutting instrument in which
two blades move past each other, like scissors but typically larger.
Hack Saw - a saw with a narrow fine-toothed
blade set in a frame, used especially for cutting metal. Box Wrench - a cylindrical wrench with a hexagonal end fitting over the head of a nut, used especially when the nut is difficult to reach.
Ring Expander -A spring device placed
under a piston ring to hold it snugly against the cylinder wall.
