Wrench & other lamp tool manufacturers N - Z


The upper tip cleaner is the Swedish Optimus brand.
It is 125mm long and the wire diameter is 0.035mm (0.015").
The lower tip cleaner is the German Petromax brand.
It is 112mm long and the wire diameter is 0.0.025mm (0.010").


The Primus brand 1050 and 1080 series lanterns
were supplied with this 96mm long wrench.
It fits nut sizes, 17.5, 9.5, 9.0, 4.0 and 1.5mm.
This wrench is in Neil McRae's collection.


Neil McRae made this wrench primarily to work on Primus type kerosene stoves
but it also is useful on a few Petromax style lanterns.
The end of the 16mm diameter shaft (right + closeup) has a 5mm slot for the pump check valve
and the end of the 12mm diameter shaft (left) has a 4mm slot for the gas tips.
The manufactured tools for this purpose can easily damage these brass parts.
This wrench is 26 cm long; the 3/4" hex on the upper handle
doesn't work well for removing stove burners as it quickly hits the stove legs.


Sizes 0 (left), 1 (center) and 2 (right) funnels, in Leonard Johnson's collection.
The stamping says: "Schuyler Filtering Funnel,
Pat. Mar. 21, 1911, Savannah, MO" (Missouri).
We don't know if this is the same Schuyler Manufacturing Co.
from whom Coleman bought funnels.
The "vanes" may help steady the funnel in the opening and allow air to exit.



The wrench and alcohol bottle above came with SunFlame kerosene lantern Model 112
and are both figured in the parts list, dated Mar. 1955, that came with the lantern.
The 4" long wrench fits nut sizes 9/16 & 7/16".


Jon Schedler got this wrench and another like it
with 2 Thomas Mfg. Co. lamps, Model M1001.
Originally the steel was blued.
This 5" long wrench fits nut sizes 3/4, 1/2, 3/8, & 5/16".


This wrench was supplied with Tilley irons DN250 and DN250A.
The wrench is 3 1/2" long and is for nut sizes 3/4, 5/8, 1/2, & 3/8".
This wrench is in Neil McRae's collection.


Tilley made this plastic dipstick, perhaps in the 1950's,
to measure the correct fuel level in the fount of a number of models:
the EX100, PL53, TL10, TL13, R1,
TL106, TL136, X246, KL80, and Life Buoy (donut lamps).
This dipstick is in Steve & Jill Wood's collection.


Bob Willard and I both have this wrench,
possibly made by a pressure lamp manufacturer.
This 4 9/16" long wrench fits nut sizes 13/16, 11/16, and 1/2".
If you can identify the manufacturer please contact me.


Another wrench possibly made by a pressure lamp manufacturer,
this wrench is 5 3/4" long and fits nut sizes 9/16, 17/32, 1/2, 7/16, & 5/16".
If you can identify the manufacturer please contact me.


These wrenches, in Neil McRae's collection, are used to remove/replace check valves
and orifices from Swedish blow torches/blow lamps, stoves, and some lanterns and lamps
The roarer burners on stoves require the "jointed" shaft tools (bottom)
a difficult job but the only good way to get to the orifice.
