Forked Wedges
Like the claw end of a hammer around a nail, these wedges grip studs or rods from both sides to give you leverage for prying apart two joined components. They’re often used to separate ball joints and tie rod ends in suspension and steering systems. Strike the wide, flat base with a hammer until the forked end pries apart the joint. Also known as pickle forks.
Nonsparking Wedges
These wedges are made of nonsparking materials. They're good for making quick height adjustments. Use in pairs for parallel adjustment. Also known as fox and flange wedges.
Aluminum-bronze wedges are Factory Mutual approved, nonmagnetic, and corrosion resistant. They satisfy OSHA requirements that specify nonsparking tools for locations where flammable vapors and combustible residues are present.
Warning: Do not use these tools in direct contact with acetylene.
