ABSTRACT:
An adjustable flat wrench having a main body section, a handle and a fixed jaw formed therewith, and a movable jaw which is opened and closed in response to rotation of an adjustment sleeve incorporates a pin having reduced diameter shear sections, so that the pin may easily be sheared out of the wrench, and the adjustment sleeve and movable jaw easily removed for repair or replacement as required. The pin is pressed into the wrench body portion, and that section of the pin which retains the pin in position and which remains following shear and removal of the sheared sections of the pin and adjustment sleeve may be easily removed with a hammer and punch in order that a new pin may be installed in the repaired wrench.
