I've lost a pair last week, wounded ain't the word had them since I was an apprentice

I have misplaced my cobras. Not seen em for atleast a fortnight. Dare not look too hard for em in case I find out that they are lost rather than misplaced

 

[gasmanrob]

Just got myself the baby ones and I mean baby! Perfect for getting into tight spots in boilers, if you can find them in the tool box

I think mine are 250mm and fit 28mm nuts and meter unions so pretty universal. They are a bit bulky that's the only downside. Get good torque on them though and now when I use my cobras they just feel flimsy , only use the cobras for pump valves now really.

i prefer the alligators think i would cry if i lost a set there like my right arm they are

Ive got a pair of these as well. I think mine are 180mm, good for a 15mm nut. I like them a lot.

Decent for chrome nuts as there is no 'waggle' like normal shifters develop over time when the jaws loosen.
