The 36mm size targets metric fasteners that have been in place for years—corroded, seized, or tightened beyond normal torque specs. The friction ratcheting mechanism maintains grip where gear-based ratchets fail.
The extra-long handle (20.5 inches) provides exceptional leverage, generating the torque needed to break loose the most stubborn fasteners without cheater bars or pipe extensions.
Essential for working on European machinery, Asian imports, and metric-standard industrial equipment. The 36mm size is common in heavy machinery, construction equipment, and commercial vehicles.
No gear teeth to strip or skip. The friction-based ratcheting action delivers consistent performance under extreme loads—exactly when you need it most.
Chrome vanadium steel construction with black oxide finish handles daily professional use in harsh industrial environments.

A friction wrench operates differently from conventional ratcheting wrenches. Instead of using internal gear teeth to create the ratcheting motion, it relies on friction plates or surfaces that grip in one direction while allowing free rotation in the other.
Q1: What size fasteners does this 36mm wrench fit?
This wrench fits 36mm hex nuts and bolt heads. It’s equivalent to approximately 1-7/16 inches in imperial measurement, commonly found in metric industrial machinery, European equipment, and import vehicles.
Q2: Why is this called a “high torque” friction wrench?
The extra-long handle design (20.5 inches) provides exceptional leverage, allowing you to generate higher torque output with less physical effort. Combined with the friction ratcheting mechanism that won’t slip under heavy loads, this wrench is specifically designed for stubborn, seized, and high-tension fasteners.
Q3: How does the friction ratcheting mechanism handle stubborn fasteners better than gear ratchets?
Gear-based ratchets can strip or skip when excessive torque is applied—exactly when you need them most. The friction mechanism uses friction surfaces instead of gear teeth, providing consistent grip regardless of torque load. This makes it ideal for rusted, corroded, or over-tightened fasteners.
Q4: Is this wrench suitable for European and Asian machinery?
Yes. The 36mm metric size is standard on European machinery (German, Italian, etc.), Japanese construction equipment, and other metric-standard industrial systems. It’s essential for any shop working on import equipment.
Q5: What makes the non-slip grip effective for industrial use?
The textured ergonomic handle maintains secure grip in real-world conditions—oily hands, wet environments, or when wearing work gloves. The multi-directional texture pattern prevents slippage during high-force applications where control is critical.
