Nope. But you might have angry thoughts thinking "What rocket scientist thought this up?!" But it is not used in aerospace.

Is it some sort of model specific tool? Remember the crazy
box end wrench I believe was made for Dodge clutch work?

The thing was shaped in a curve...

It is not sort of model specific. It works on three different European vehicle makes. It will work on a broad number of years. But it does only one job on all the cars.

It depends on the vehicle year what end you use.

Nope. But that post about the Dodge clutch was a near miss. But was in the ballpark. Or next door.

Well obviously the two silver bits go on either end of the black bit! Is that the tool in it's entirety or are there other bits in the set or kit. Obviously for automotive use, and for one genre and specific adjustment. Brakes?

That is the complete tool. Not a brake tool.

Compact design will fit into your 19 mm or 3/4" box wrench or socket for maximum leverage. Heat treated alloy steel.

Is it an oil sump drain plug key? But I don't understand the significance of the two covers for the ends...
