What is a "flare nut wrench"?
A flare nut wrench is a type of wrench designed specifically for tightening or loosening nuts with a flared, rounded edge, commonly found on plumbing or hydraulic fittings. Its unique design features open ends with a slightly curved shape that fits around the nut's edges, providing a better grip without damaging the nut. This tool is especially useful when working with soft metals or fittings where traditional wrenches might slip.
