The Wheeler 156999 Armorer's Wrench eliminates the need for multiple tools when servicing AR-15 rifles, combining essential functions into one precision-machined steel tool. This professional-grade wrench handles barrel nut installation, flash hider removal, and castle nut adjustments with the accuracy demanded by gunsmiths and serious enthusiasts. Built from hardened steel with a corrosion-resistant black finish, it withstands the torque requirements of proper rifle assembly.
What Makes This Different
Unlike basic armorer's wrenches that focus on single functions, the Wheeler 156999 integrates multiple wrench surfaces and pin holes for comprehensive AR-15 maintenance. The tool features precisely machined teeth that engage barrel nuts without slipping, while integrated cutouts accommodate various muzzle devices and accessories. This eliminates the frustration of stripped nuts and damaged components common with improvised tools.Key Features
