Enfield wrenches
I was going through some stuff from my Dad’s estate and came across these wrenches. Does anyone have an idea what they would be for? Two are marked Enfield, and the other is Melco.
Thanks |

Spanners. And l think they are for motorcycles.

Enfield also made small stationary engines for agricultural and industrial use, as did BSA. Enfield Motorcycles and BSA had some common history as private companies. While BSA was a rifle manfacturer who also made motorcycles and engines, the Enfield motorcycle and engine maker WAS NOT the same Enfield that made Small Arms (which was a government-owned factory), although there were some links.

Enfield
Thankyou for the response. They probably are for a motorcycle. I know that my father rode motorcycles in England before the war and after he came home. I don’t recall him telling about a Royal Enfield, but he did say that he owned a Matchless. I also know that his cousin rode a Black Shadow.

Enfield were also very big bicycle manufacturers until 1967.
The middle spanner looks like a standard bicycle tool. The thin spanner looks like an axle bearing cone adjuster for a bike. Most bike tool kits had those two spanners and a couple of tyre irons. There probably was a similarity in some tools between motor cycle and bicycle. Lang |
