Crows foot spanner

[Slim]

Does anyone know where i can source a 'real' 13mm crows foot spanner. I don't mean one of those flat steel things that take a 3/8 drive extension bar. I've tried the internet without success.

What equipment needs a 13mm crowsfoot? Sounds a bit like 9/16" for 1.5 head nuts.

I googled "13mm crowfoot" with the quote marks.  There are more results.

I always understood 13mm =1/2"imperial 9/16"usually came under the 15 mm cloak

Yes but I am trying to work out what on a boat is likely to require a metric crows foot. Just do not want the OP to strip corners off a AF nut by using a metric tool.

I suggest the OP measures across the flats with a vernier calliper (these are now incredibly cheap) and checks to see if it is truly a metric bolt.  As others have said, it's more likely to be Imperial.

1/2 " is 12.7mm which could easily be mistaken for 13mm if measuring with a steel rule or a tape measure.  Especially if it were still covered in paint.

Thanks for everyone's comments and suggestions ( don't know how to highlight individual comments on this tablet

1) I can confirm that it's a 13mm spanner I need, it's to get to a couple of inaccessable bolts on my generator installation. When I did them up it took 8 yes 8 hours to tighten 2

2) I 'll try the sites suggested by some of you though at least one seems familar.

 

Many thanks

Would an obstruction wrench or a cranked spanner do the job?
