Vacuum Grip Double Open End Wrench

Post by hlszrs4 »

Can anyone tell me about this wrench? I have found nothing on the existence of this type of wrench from Forged Steel Products or from Snap-on.

Thanks, John

I have never seen one either. Anything on the back side. Would you be interested in selling (or trading) it?

Just the sizes marked on the wrench faces on the reverse.
Thanks for the offer but I'm holding onto it for now.

Any ideas on this?

I had assumed that vacuum grip only did pliers.

A guess on who made the wrench? doesnt look exactly like a snap on

Forged Steel Products made Blue Point wrenches starting in the mid 20s. It is hard to date this wrench, would probably be 20s or early 30s.

Here is a Blue Point that was probably made by Forged steel.
