T-Handles and L-Handles
T-handles and L-handles are two types of wrenches that are used to turn bolts and nuts. They are designed to provide more leverage than a standard wrench, making them ideal for tightening and loosening stubborn fasteners.
T-handles
T-handles are named for their T-shaped design. The long handle provides a lot of leverage, while the short handle allows you to get a good grip on the bolt or nut. T-handles are available in a variety of sizes, so you can choose the one that is best suited for the job.
L-handles
L-handles are similar to T-handles, but they have a longer handle that is bent at a 90-degree angle. This design makes them ideal for reaching into tight spaces. L-handles are also available in a variety of sizes, so you can choose the one that is best suited for the job.
