Application

Available in various sets, R.B.R.T SAE and Metric Combination Wrenches from Mac Tools are designed to be used on new and damaged fasteners. They are capable of gripping and turning 60 percent rounded fasteners with the open end and 80 percent rounded fasteners with the box end.

Origin

Mac Tools strives to provide customers with products with a purpose along with products that increase productivity and user safety. As rounded and compromised bolt removal has been a growing issue in the automotive space, Mac Tools wanted to deliver a combination wrench that operated as a traditional wrench with stretched performance capabilities. This resulted in the expansion of the Rounded Bolt Removal Technology (R.B.R.T.) and line to combination wrenches.

Selling points

  • Can be used on both new and damaged fasteners.
  • When being used on new fasteners, the R.B.R.T. Combination Wrenches can handle more torque before rounding.
  • When used on rounded fasteners, the open end can extract up to 60 percent of rounded fasteners and 80 percent of rounded fasteners with the box end without damaging the fastener further.
  • All wrench sets are sold in a portable wrench rack which can be stored inside a toolbox or be taken on the road for a service call.

Features and benefits

  • Up to 2X more torque (when removing 60 percent and 80 percent rounded fasteners vs existing Mac Tools wrenches).
