I'm likely to need a wrench similar to this:
They aren't readily available, at least in the USA.
Can anybody think of a substitute that's close enough to be filed and/or peened to get a decent fit? Max thickness has to be no more than about 1/8 inch. It's grabbing an aluminum part, so material strength isn't likely to be an issue. Full circle grip is important, as the nut is thin and surface loads high. The hub being worked on is already a little chewed up from using a wrench that engages only two flats.
A thin 1-3/8" could be filed out, a 1-7/16" could be peened smaller and filed to fit.
I started by looking at plumbing fitting wrenches and struck out. Anybody got a better idea?
Thanks for reading,
