Wera 6003 Joker 22 Set 1 — 22 slim combination wrenches from 5.5 mm to 32 mm for narrow installation spaces
22 wrenches, 5.5–32 mm15° return angle at the open endSlim ring, cranked 15°Take it easy colour coding
The Wera 6003 Joker 22 Set 1 (part number 05020232001) is a 22-piece metric combination wrench set running from 5.5 mm to 32 mm, built deliberately slim for work in narrow installation spaces. Unlike the ratcheting 6000 Joker, the 6003 has a fixed ring end cranked at 15 degrees to the tool axis and an open end offset by 7.5 degrees, which combined with the double-hexagon geometry lets the wrench take the fastener every 15 degrees instead of every 30. It suits fitters, maintenance engineers and installers who need reach and a wide size range rather than ratchet speed. Typically in stock with fast delivery across Cyprus.
Compatibility — check before buying:
This is the non-ratcheting Joker: it has no ratchet mechanism, no holding plate in the jaw and no limit stop, so if you specifically want the bolt to be held in the open end you need the 6000 Joker instead. Sizes are metric only and run unbroken from 5.5 mm to 22 mm, then 24, 27, 30 and 32 mm. Wera states a high-quality surface treatment for corrosion protection but does not publish an alloy for this line, so claims of stainless or hard-chromed construction are not confirmed. Wera also does not state the container type supplied with the 22-piece set, and the wrenches are not insulated or VDE-tested.
✓ Narrow installation spaces and shallow recesses
✓ Plant and machinery maintenance across a wide size range
✓ Fasteners above 19 mm where ratcheting sets stop
✓ Workshops needing one full metric spanner run
✓ Assembly work where a slim ring must pass a flange
✓ Trades preferring conventional spanners over ratchets
15 degree return angle at the open end
Wera specifies that the low return angle in the open end takes the screw every 15 degrees. Combined with the 7.5 degree offset of the jaw and the double-hexagon geometry, the number of placement points is doubled compared with a conventional open end, which is what makes progress possible against a wall or bracket.
Slim ring cranked at 15 degrees
The ring side is deliberately slim and tilted 15 degrees to the tool axis. That crank clears knuckles and adjacent components and, as Wera puts it, helps prevent injury, while the slim section slides into recesses that a bulky ratcheting ring cannot enter.
Full metric range from 5.5 to 32 mm
Twenty-two wrenches cover every millimetre from 5.5 to 22 mm and then 24, 27, 30 and 32 mm, with lengths growing from 105 mm to 360 mm. That is a wider span than any ratcheting Joker set, so one purchase covers small fittings and large flange nuts.
Take it easy tool finder
Wera colour-codes the wrenches by profile and by size, so the correct tool is picked from the roll at a glance rather than by reading stamped figures upside down in poor light. High-quality surface treatment gives long-lasting corrosion protection.
What is the difference between the 6003 Joker and the 6000 Joker?
The 6000 Joker ratchets: it has an 80-tooth ratchet in the ring end plus a hardened holding plate and limit stop in the jaw, and a 30 degree return angle. The 6003 Joker has none of those. It is a conventional combination wrench, slimmer, with a 15 degree cranked ring and a 15 degree return angle at the open end, and it covers a much wider size range.
Does this set hold the nut in the open end like other Joker wrenches?
No. The holding function with the serrated metal plate belongs to the 6000 Joker line. On the 6003 the Joker name refers to the open-end geometry, which increases the number of placement points, not to a gripping plate. If holding the fastener one-handed matters to you, choose a 6000 Joker set.
Which sizes are included?
Every millimetre from 5.5 to 22 mm, that is 5.5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22 mm, followed by 24, 27, 30 and 32 mm. Lengths run from 105 mm on the smallest to 360 mm on the 32 mm wrench.
What do I need to know before buying the 6003 Joker 22 Set 1?
It weighs 3.7 kg packed, it is metric only, and it is not insulated for electrical work. Wera does not publish the container type for the 22-piece version, and it does not publish the alloy, only that the surface treatment gives long-lasting corrosion protection. Buy it for reach and range rather than for ratcheting speed.
Singular Expert Insight
Choosing between the two Joker families is really a choice about what is blocking you. If it is time, take the 6000 with its 80-tooth ratchet and the plate that holds the nut. If it is space, take this one: the 15 degree cranked ring is thin enough to slide past a flange or into a recess where the ratcheting ring simply will not go, and the 7.5 degree jaw offset means you keep making progress at 15 degree bites instead of flipping the spanner every half turn. The 22-piece run to 32 mm is the other argument, because ratcheting sets stop at 19 mm and larger nuts are exactly where you least want an adjustable. Note that Wera does not publish the case type here, so plan your own storage if that matters. Browse our

Buy it if
You want one metric spanner set that covers 5.5 mm right through to 32 mm and you regularly work in recesses and against obstructions where a slim, cranked ring is the only thing that fits.
Skip it if
You want a ratcheting ring end or a jaw that holds the nut, you only work between 8 and 19 mm, or you need insulated VDE spanners for live electrical work.
