    Default Open ended wrenches supplied with 1940's machines

    I've been trying to collect a full tool kit for each of my 1940's machines.
    In the parts lists the open ended wrenches are numbered:

    5B780 Wrench - 5/16 & 3/8 OPENING
    5B781 Wrench - 7/16 & 1/2 OPENING
    5B782 Wrench - 9/16 & 5/8 OPENING
    5B783 Wrench - 11/16 & 3/4 OPENING
    5B784 Wrench - 13/16 & 7/8 OPENING
    5B785 Wrench - 15/16 & 1 OPENING
    5B786 Wrench - 1 1/16 & 1 1/8 OPENING
    5B787 Wrench - 1 1/4 & 1 5/16 OPENING
    5B789 Wrench - 1 1/2 & 1 5/8 OPENING

    Note there is a gap between 5B787 and 5B789 !

    I have never seen and example of, or seen a parts book listing a 5B788 wrench

    Could anyone tell me if 5B788 does relate to an open ended wrench, and if so what size, or if the number was used for another part.

    Thanks.

    Hi John,
    Looked up your numbers in the Cat data base.
    5B0787 shows as a wrench.
    5B0789 is a wrench that interchanges with a 1B6417
    5B0788 comes up as a "no match" number.

    Doesn't give any info as to description.

    Thanks Old Magnet,
    It looks like 5B0788 was not a wrench then, and maybe it is a part number that was never used (hence "no match") ?

    Yes, I would conclude that the number was not used.
