This McAlpine spanner is specifically designed for 70 mm and 85 mm shower trap flanges.

Yes, its durable construction and ease of use make it suitable for both professional plumbers and DIY enthusiasts.

Wipe the spanner clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth after use. Store it in a dry location to prevent rust or damage.

The main benefit is ensuring a secure, reliable fit for 70/85 mm shower trap flanges, which helps prevent leaks and simplifies installation and maintenance.

Using the spanner on a flange outside the 70/85 mm range will likely result in a poor or insecure fit, potentially leading to leaks or damage to the flange or tool.

Ensure you are using the correct spanner for a 70/85 mm flange. Check that the flange is not damaged or excessively worn. Align the spanner jaws carefully with the flange slots.

If the flange is very tight, apply steady, even pressure. Ensure there are no obstructions or debris preventing movement. If the flange is stuck, a small amount of penetrating oil may help, but use cautiously near seals.

Verify that the flange is indeed within the 70/85 mm size range. Inspect the spanner jaws for wear or damage. If the flange is smaller or larger than specified, this spanner will not provide a secure fit.
