adjustable wrench
Jaw-width varies freely
An adjustable wrench has a movable jaw that can be widened or narrowed to grip nuts and bolts of various sizes.
The jaw is controlled by a thumbwheel or screw mechanism near the head.
Also called a crescent wrench after a popular brand name.
Hand me the adjustable wrench—I don't know what size this bolt is.
