Claim:
An open-end wrench comprising a jaw portion and a handle, with the jaw portion including first and second engaging portions and an opening between the first and second engaging portions, with the opening including an arcuate bottom end, with the first engaging portion including a first driving face on a side of the opening, with the second engaging portion including a second driving face on the other side of the opening, with the first and second driving faces parallel to each other, with each of the first and second driving faces having a tip, with a first corner formed between the bottom end of the opening and the first driving face, with a second corner formed between the bottom end of the opening and the second driving face, with an imaginary line passing through the tips of the first and second driving faces, with the opening adapted to receive a fastener including six sides, with two parallel sides of the fastener engaged with the first and second driving faces, with the fastener including six corners and a width between two parallel sides of the fastener, characterized in that: a first length is defined between the bottom end of the opening in a direction perpendicular to the imaginary line, a spacing between the tips is larger than 0.95 times the first length and smaller than 1.05 times the first length (0.95*L1<S<1.05*L 1 ), when the fastener is received in the opening, a corner of the fastener is received in the bottom end, another two corners of the fastener are located on the imaginary line and flush with the tips, the first engaging portion has a first width at the first corner in a direction perpendicular to the first driving face, the first width is the maximum distance from the first driving face to an outer surface of the first engaging portion, the second engaging portion has a second width at the second corner in a direction perpendicular to the second driving face, the second width is the maximum distance from the second driving face to an outer surface of the second engaging portion, each of the first and second widths is larger than 0.2975 times the width of the fastener and smaller than 0.4025 times the width of the fastener (02975*W<H 1 <0.4025*W, 0 .2975*W<H 2 <0.4025*W).
