Hands On Review: Sears Craftsman Ratcheting Box End Wrench [Ball Lock Keg Wrench]
Craftsman’s model 421165 Ratcheting Box End Wrench has has both an 11/16th end and a 7/8th end. That makes it perfect for the two standard sizes of ball lock posts! I’ve had a chance to give it a try and I think it’s amazing.

The ratcheting function speeds up post tightening and loosening. Having this wrench also means you’ve got one go-to wrench no matter what type of ball lock post you’re working with. The wrench is solidly built and has the Craftsman Guaranteed Forever Warranty.
Update: 9/2014. I’m still using the same wrench I got back in 2012 and it’s still working great.

Will this work on a 12-point post on a ball lock corny?
I bought one today, it was on sale for less than ten bucks! Thanks for the tip.
Bought one of these. Picking it up tonight. Thanks for the heads-up. 🙂
Make sure you buy it online and do store pickup, and don’t just go to the store! I thought I’d just walk over there and buy it a few months ago, but they didn’t honor the online sale price.
How did you get free shipping?
I actually did free store pickup, but there is also a free shipping promo going on right now. I just looked at the details on that and it’s for orders of $49 or more. I’ll edit the post to note that. I didn’t see the minimum order amount.
