What is a "pry bar"?
A pry bar is a tool used to leverage, lift, or pry apart objects. It typically has a long, flat metal bar with one or both ends shaped into a wedge or curved tip. The bar is used by inserting the tip into a gap or under an object and applying force to separate or lift it. Pry bars are commonly used in construction, demolition, or repair work to remove nails, lift flooring, or open crates. They are available in various sizes, with larger ones used for heavier tasks and smaller ones for more delicate jobs.
