Non-sparking strike wrench for hazardous areas

The Ampco Safety Tools WS-1 is a 12-point box strike wrench built for environments where flammable vapours, liquids or dust are present. Its non-sparking, non-magnetic and corrosion-resistant construction suits maintenance teams in refineries, chemical plants and MRI facilities.

Factory Mutual approved construction limits

The wrench carries Factory Mutual approval and is beryllium free, confirming compliance for use in classified hazardous locations. It is not tether capable, so it cannot be secured to a lanyard system for drop-prevention programmes.

1-13/16 inch head with 9 inch leverage

The 1-13/16 inch SAE opening fits large fasteners common on heavy flanges and valve gear, while the 9 inch overall length gives ample striking leverage. The 15/16 inch head thickness provides durability for repeated hammer blows, but the fixed size means a different wrench is needed for any other fastener dimension.

Questions about this item

Is the 12-point box opening the right choice for a 1-13/16 in fastener?

Yes, the 12-point box fits a 1-13/16 in hex or square fastener and allows engagement at more angles than a 6-point wrench.

What does the 9 in overall length deliver in daily use?

The 9 in handle gives enough leverage for striking applications while keeping the tool manageable in tight spaces.

How does the non-sparking, non-magnetic aluminum bronze material affect where I can use this wrench?

It is Factory Mutual approved for use around flammable vapours, liquids or dust and near MRI or clean-room equipment.
