Engine Gas Turbines (Supplementary) USCG Question #88 (Set 3)

With the exception of having a slot cut in the wrench head, a flare nut wrench is similar to what other wrench?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option C — Box

A flare nut wrench, also known as a tubing wrench, features a box-end design with a small opening to allow the tool to slide over tubing. This provides the high-torque, multi-point contact of a standard box wrench while preventing the rounding of soft fittings found in fuel and hydraulic lines.
