How do I know my spanner size?

If the bolt size is up to M14,

  1. Spanner size =(Bolt size*1.5)+1.
  2. Eg. If Bolt size is M8, Then spanner size is (8*1.5)+1 =13.
  3. If bolt size is above M14,
  4. Spanner size = (Bolr size *1.5)
  5. Eg. If bolt size is M16, Then spanner size is (16*1.5) = 24.
