	Adjustable spanner - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		There are many forms of the adjustable spanner or shifting spanner, from the taper locking spanners which needed a hammer to set the moveable jaw to the size of the nut, to the modern screw adjusted spanner.
		There is a class of adjustables that automatically adjust to the size of the nut.
		Some early spanners were invented by Edwin Beard Budding (1795-1846), and Johan Petter Johansson of Sweden in 1892.

		Use the spanner so the main strain is taken by the solid section of the head rather then the adjustable part.
		Although they resemble adjustable spanners, the basic difference is that the jaws of a wrench are serrated, enabling them to grip and turn objects such as lengths of pipe.
