ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An adjustable wrench which will exert a pressure on at least four torque pressure points on a work object having sides instead of on only two torque pressure points which are available with conventional adjustable wrenches. The wrench comprises a longitudinally extended body having a fixed jaw at one end, a handle at the other end, and an adjustable jaw that is slidably disposed along the body for gripping the object between the jaws. Each jaw is shaped to include an inner and an outer face adapted to contact a pair of adjacent sides of the object. The faces are unequal in length with the longer of the two faces being adapted to completely span and engage one side of the object, the shorter face being adapted to contact at least a portion of the adjacent side of the object and the corresponding faces of both jaws being disposed in opposed parallel relation. In a preferred embodiment, a fifth torque pressure point provided by a portion of either the fixed or movable jaw becomes available for applying pressure to a further torque pressure point on the object when the jaws are set at their maximum opening. The length ratio of the shorter and longer jaw faces occurs as 1:2, respectively, but may be altered to provide a reach in feature to grip a pair of opposite sides of an object which is only partly accessible.
