Here are some cheap whitworth spanners

I got some of these as a second set, OK but if you want something special, Britool are about as good as they get in Whitworth, nice thin walled ring end, I've had a set for over 20 years and they still look good, the only thing, four times the price

Whitworth spanners will fit BSF hex heads, but one size removed if that makes any sense. If you have a set of whitworth spanners and they don't fit let us know which nut or bolt you're trying to remove and we'll see if we can help - a photo would be good.

I've found a small adjustable spanner to be a very useful tool. Fits pretty much everything, and goes in your pocket also, whilst out in the boat.
