Our wrenches feature a high carbon steel body with a low carbon steel rod handle. Special commercial tempering gives optimum strength to the wrench fingers. The malleable handle will flex if excess torque is applied, to avoid damage. Our wrenches are not unbreakable, but they are pretty close!
This well tempered slotted end wrench works well for heavy duty jobs. Loosen rusted nipples with penetrating oil or heat. Is the barrel unloaded? The .255" socket fits 1/4" flat Springfield, Enfield, and musket nipples. Made in the U.S.A. Color of product will vary due to the heat treating process.
Lubricate your percussion nipple threads with #BC-CTL Choke Tube Lube, and easily remove them, even after hundreds of shots. It withstands high temperatures, and prevents thread galling.
Stuck nipple? Try soaking the cylinder in penetrating oil for a few weeks, and be gentle using this wrench. Once removed, use our #BC-CTL Choke Tube Lubricant to prevent the nipple from ever becoming stuck.
