Park SW-12 Double-Ended Spoke Wrench - Mavic 7-Spline
The SW-12 is a double-ended spoke wrench designed for the unique splined spoke nipples found on some Mavic wheels.
The SW-12 is a tool we reach for, not one we simply resell. Park Tool design and manufacture it in Minnesota; ProWheelBuilder is an independent wheel builder in Georgia and a Park stockist, not the manufacturer.
What it does
A spoke wrench that fits properly is the cheapest insurance in wheelbuilding. A loose fit rounds the nipple, and a rounded nipple on a tensioned wheel means cutting the spoke out and rebuilding that section.

Warranty
Park's warranty. Most Park Tool products carry a limited lifetime warranty against defects in material and workmanship. Pumps, stools, torque wrenches, electronic tools, motors and power supplies are covered for one year. Normal wear, misuse and damage from improper use are excluded.
ProWheelBuilder. Our own one-year warranty is a wheel warranty - it covers wheels we build, not tools or accessories. This item is covered by its manufacturer, as set out above.
Full terms are on our Policies & Warranty page.
SW-12 questions
Do you ship tools on their own?
Yes. Tools and accessories ship by themselves; only wheel components get built into wheels here.
Is this the right one for my wheels?
Tell us what you are working on and we will tell you straight. A spoke wrench has to fit the part exactly; the wrong size does damage rather than work.
Not sure? Text or leave a voicemail on 470-253-0929 or email info@prowheelbuilder.com — you will be talking to the people who build the wheels.
