« Last post by amecks on November 02, 2025, 08:35:59 AM »A lot of manufacterers have an "1164" wrench - in size 5'8". How would a 5/8" nut or bolt look when inserted in the wrench? Photo?
I tried searching for CMP, CMR, MPC, MRC with no solid results. There is a vague similarity to a firearm barrel wrench but I don't think that's a good match because you have that 1164 designation.

If you're interested in finding another third party image-hosting site like Imgur, I found a Reddit post here where users from the UK have suggested a few alternatives.
