minus-squarebufalo1973linkfedilink25•6 months ago“Bring the 13-14 key” is a basic mechanic’s joke. Note: in mm.
minus-squarebufalo1973linkfedilink21•6 months agoFixed keys are 12-13 and 14-15. 13-14 doesn’t exist.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink24•6 months agoThe 13-14 is really only used when you’re changing the headlight fluid, for some reason.
minus-square@DavidchanlinkEnglish6•edit-26 months agoFunnily enough the lock for the elbow grease in the closet is also 13-14
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish2•6 months agoIs that an Allan key? I’ve never seen them marked anything other than a single number, in SAE or metric.

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish3•6 months agoOdd; I’ve never seen multiple sizes on one wrench, nor seen them called ‘keys’

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish2•6 months agoNever really see those around here anymore. I have a few in old tractors, but most of them have been lost by now and replaced with box end wrenches of single sizes.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink1•6 months agoAh, thanks. Never heard a double ended wrench called a key before.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish1•6 months agoFrom German the direct translation to English is screw key.
minus-squarebufalo1973linkfedilink1•6 months agoMy bad. In Spanish we call them “llaves” and I translated it without thinking.

I don’t get it?
