The inventions relates to a tool 10 that is adapted to loosen or fasten connector nuts located in areas of reduced space. The tool 10 is particularly useful because it allows manipulating basin nuts 40 located between the lower portion of the basing and piping that provides water to the faucets that are attached to the basin via the nut. The tool comprising a body having a first section adapted to receive the fastening means and a second section adapted to receive the torque, the first section and the second section being adapted for attachment to each other to transfer the torque to the first section, wherein the first section is adapted to allow piping to be located adjacent the second section during use of the tool to allow the first section to receive the fastening means. The tool may be configured as a socket. The invention also relates to a kit including the sockets.
A tool for applying torque to a fastening means, the tool comprising a body having a first section being adapted for receiving at least a portion of the fastening means for application of the torque to the fastening means, a second section adapted to receive the torque, and a third section for joining the first and second section to transfer the torque to the first section, the first section comprising first and second gripping means arranged in an opposite relationship with respect to each other, and the third section comprising two centre sections opposite with respect to each other, wherein each centre sections are of reduced width with respect to the gripping means to define a plurality of clearances.
A socket for applying torque to a faucet nut located between a surface and a piping, the socket comprising a first section for application of the torque to the faucet nut, a second section adapted to receive the torque, and a third section for joining the first and second section to transfer the torque to the first section, the first section comprising first and second gripping means arranged in an opposite relationship with respect to each other and the third section comprising two centre sections opposite with respect to each other, wherein the centre sections are of a reduced width with respect to the gripping means to define clearances.
