MetalCloak — 1 1/2″ crow's foot wrench for Duroflex jam nuts
Duroflex control arms are adjusted by length and then locked with a jam nut. The catch is that the nut sits where an ordinary open-ended spanner has no room to swing and a socket will not reach at all.
This tool is a flat 1 1/2″ (1,50in) crow's foot on a 1/2in ratchet — it gets in where there is no room, and lets you torque the jam nut without stripping half the suspension.
Construction
- 3/8in AR400 steel, laser cut — the material is chosen for the torque a jam nut sees
- Laser-etched size marking — it will not rub off like print
- 1/2in ratchet drive
- Gold zinc finish — zinc bonds molecularly to the steel and keeps protecting it after a scratch, unlike paint
- Flat design — it takes almost no room in a tool bag
What exactly it fits
The jam nuts on MetalCloak Duroflex control arms. The manufacturer sized it precisely for them — it will not spin on the nut and round the flats off.
⚠ MetalCloak uses three different jam nut sizes across the Duroflex range: 1 1/2in (part no. 8994), 1 11/16in (8993) and 1 7/8in (8995). We stock all three. Check which size your kit uses before ordering — or contact us.
Why carry it on the trail
Adjustable arms sometimes need correcting after a long trip, or simply checking. This wrench is flat enough to live in a tool bag without taking space, and without it a trailside adjustment is not happening.

FAQ
Which size do I need?
It depends on the arms in your kit. MetalCloak uses three sizes: 1 1/2in, 1 11/16in and 1 7/8in. Measure the nut or contact us.
Does it fit another brand's arms?
The tool is designed around Duroflex jam nuts. It fits another brand only if the size matches.
What drive?
1/2in.
Could I use a normal spanner?
In theory, but in practice there is no room to swing it — hence this shape.
