Wera Joker Wrenches

- There are a lot of options for wrenches --- and a lot more when you look into ratcheting wrenches, but the WERA Jokers are unique in more ways than one!
These have a unique open-end design that allows for nuts/bolts to pass-through like any normal wrench, but rotating the nuts/bolt slightly will cause it to stay in place --- since the wrenches have a built-in retainer plate.
Along with that, the plate acts as a non-slip grip.....meaning that these will not slip off of a fastener or round off a bolt like a normal wrench could.
The sets include a sturdy tool roll, so you can keep track of all of your wrenches & carry them with you to the job site!

I see a lot of people saying these are junk or a gimmick. That’s simply not true and these wrenches are quite durable. They may not be the best option for automotive work, but having used them in an industrial/fabrication environment they perform quite well. No wrench is going to fit every situation, that’s why so many types are made. People tend to think the automotive field is the only proving ground for tools, it’s not.
Best wrenches I've ever owned, I won't borrow one out unless you leave a major credit card & Id .
I’m a machinery mechanic and I deal with Krones a lot. All of their technicians use wera. I really liked the 1/4 drive set a tech let me borrow one week. I ended up buying that and have slowly started buying wera everything. There are no gimmicks with these tools and the quality is just superb. Pricey yes, but not as near as expensive as snap on. You just can’t beat these tools. Hands down the best available.
It all started with one damn green-handled screwdriver! Now I'm the owner of both (SAE & metric) 3/8" full sets of Zyklop, several screwdrivers, 1/4" check bit plus set, SAE Joker and this full metric set. I love quality tools and this brand got me :-) Money is money, today we have them, tomorrow not but quality tools, if you use them, are always around. If you value yourself as a professional, you will invest in a nice tools for yourself just to enjoy whatever you do even more. Great review btw!
Wera is like the Knipex of screwdrivers, ratchets and wrenches.
Some add-on info as of 2018: The open-end plate can be replaced after it is worn out. There's a version with a 15° tilted boxed end, too. And there's a version with two open-ends on one wrench. In Germany their price is below 190USD for the 11-wrench set in the video. If You buy with company discount this gets even lower - so for us the price isn't so high. And yes, skilled mechanics have found ways to handle the mentioned issues without having such a specialized tool. However, that still does not disqualify the qualities of the WERA Joker wrenches - it merely shows the skill of the user. ATB, Gereon
Best demonstration of their advantages vs regular wrenches I've seen so far. I would definitely go with the model with an offset and ratcheting direction switch though as like others have said, the straight ones are pretty much useless as your fingers are always in the way when tightening/loosening fasteners!
$233? Nope ill wait until snap on comes out with thier version and pay $1900 @ 25 bucks a week for the rest of my life then my kids can pick up the rest of the tab when im dead.
One unmentioned advantage: the open end holds 4 sides/3 points of a hex head snuggly, regardless of whether in 6 or 12 point configuration. where a conventional open end wrench only holds 2/0. If fully inserted around a head, this delivers more torgque with less chance of rounding off the corners.
I just like how they feel in my hand, puts a little grin on my face everytime I reach for them.
now show the Batman wrenches
As an older guy I appreciate the large and easy to read sizes marked on them, many of the tools I have bought over the years the sizes are too small to read or not marked clearly enough to read, when I bought them years ago my eyes were better, you never think about that when you are buying tools when you are young. I have a large very nice ratcheting wrench set that I bought 25+ years ago, I have to get a magnifying glass to read the sizes on most of them.
Saw these on ebay and decided to buy a 13mm size just to check them out. Have to say, first impressions are excellent. Quality and finish are easily upto Snap-On standards, I feel qualified to make that judgement as I own ALOT of Snap-On tools! Funtionaly, so far it's brilliant, solving many of those awkward wrench problems in difficult situations. Durability is an unknown but I'm pretty convinced they will measure up, so I'll take the plunge and buy a set. They definitely represent a major innovation in wrench technology.
I just seen those wrenches in a paper and your demonstration of them now was #1 I will have to get some now.
They seem pretty specific for the situation they are advantageous in, but kudos for ingenuity and design. The coolest part I saw was using them with the all-thread, but seeing as how a lot of my work is over 20' high-- I would never let go of a tool like that 😅😅
Wow. had no idea what the metal insert was for, but after this demo I can remember lots of times it would have come in handy. I've had to tape a nut into a wrench a lot of times.
That was an excellent presentation. I’m impressed with those.
I have just about every wrench set I could ever need, however, that doesn’t include wrench sets that I WANT! These are pretty cool and still cheaper than most of my Snap On sets. Thanks for the review. Love the Wrenches. ❤️
Wera makes some nice tools have been using them the last few years mostly their security bits but these look really nice
I have one of these, bought specifically to adjust the clutch biting point on a 2008 Civic Type R. The straight head was the selling point for my needs. Brilliant tool. I'll have to get the whole set at some point......when I find them on discount. £15 for a single spanner soon adds up!
