Llave cerrada o de boca abierta


Explanation:
Que pena ser tan simple pero en lenguaje común y entre personas que manejan herramientas asi se denominan. Y más comun aún es llamarlas juego de llaves milimétricas o en pulgadas "combinadas"; osea un extremo esta abierto (de boca abierto) y el otro cerrada. Hay muchos ejemplos en internet
