Until yesterday i had no interest in spanners but a visit to a junk shop i found 4 IHC spanners so i suppose i am now a collector.
Does anyone else have this afflication and help me understand the part/model numbers on them.
PS. Tractors are still important but an intertesting sideline to go with my 1874 cheque signed by Cyrus himself!

I have a 4 page list of all the IHC tools made. It
has listed a double Spanner No.270N. If anyone would like a copy of this tool list e-mail me and
I can run off some copy's and send them to you.
Should be able to get in big envelope and one stamp.

Kurow,

From the way you talk, I'm guessing you're not from Kansas. Some experience with Brit iron some years ago tells me you're talking about what we call wrenches. Guess you're from one of those places where we're separated by a common language.

A lot of the tractors originally came with a wrench or two - and I think we had an IH adjustable wrench years and years ago.

If you could post the part numbers on the spanners / wrenches, maybe somebody could look it up for you, as they're referenced in parts manuals.

I have a IHC "monkey" wrench that came with my 1934 F-12. basicly a smooth jawed pipe wrench. Hopefully that makes sense because I have no idea how to explain what a pipe wrench is.

The G3170 is a open ended wrench with a different size on each end, it came standard with the Farmall F-series (for sure the F-20) tractors in the 1930's. I suspect the GA3171 is similar, just a different size. Not sure on the other two.

Actually, there is such a thing as a spanner wrench, they come in several sizes and configurations, and are a specialized tool made to fit into holes, or notches.

There are indeed spanners, as we Americans know them, made by IHC with the IHC logo. I saw a couple of them a week or so ago listed on EBay. I assumed them to be used to tighten a packing nut or something similar.

It is always interesting to see how one common language headed in different directions between spelling, pronunciation, and meaning. If a person happens to travel the world you sometimes can get yourself into a fix and not even know it. Thanks for the chuckle first thing in the morning.

Heck & 20,(that's the polite term for he##) you don't even have to travel the world to see differences. That machine that they drive around in warehouses to move pallets can be called a fork lift, lift truck, tow motor, bug, or hi-low, depending on which part of the USA you are. A sandwich on a bun with ground beef, lettuce & tomato can be called a California burger, deluxe, or vegatable burger. But in southern Cal a veg burger doesn't have any meat, just ground up soybeans, cornflakes & crackers. Regular coffee in NYC used to be almost white with cream & 5 scoops of sugar. Now regular coffee is the black stuff, different from latte or espresso. Traveled the 48 states & southern Canada as a bus/truck driver, and the local differences keep a person on his toes.
