It looks like a wrench with a cup at the endpoint. I was wondering what is this tool called and whether it's meant to be used by itself or in combination with a bottom bracket tool, like the PT BBT-22, for example.

the matte/pearl parts are ordinary socket set. The shiny splined part just visible is the bottom bracket tool. The socket looks too big (compared to my bottom bracket tool aliexpress.com/item/…)– Henry CrunCommented Jun 27, 2018 at 11:12

1We generally just use a large adjustable wrench.– Daniel R HicksCommented Jun 27, 2018 at 12:21

A 12" adjustable spanner/wrench/crescent is all I use on my BB tool. Sometimes with a length of steam pipe for additional leverage.– Criggie ♦Commented Jun 28, 2018 at 2:21

The tools being used there are:
- Bottom bracket tool
- Large socket to engage with the large hex head on the BB tool
- Sliding T-handle socket driver
Some bottom bracket tools such as the Park BBT-22 have a 3/8 socket drive built in, so the large socket isn't necessary.

Looks like a 32mm socket with a bar attached instead of a ratched.
So you should be able to use a 32mm socket with a ratchet with the PT BBT-22.

do you believe it's two pieces, a socket and a bar? Commented Jun 27, 2018 at 10:22

I know I can use a 32mm socket with the BBT-22, it says it on the Park Tool. For my question, I am actually curious to know what that specific wrench is. Commented Jun 27, 2018 at 10:36

1Pretty sure that's a Bar or Sliding T-Handle Socket Driver as Argenti Apparatus mentioned– nollakCommented Jun 27, 2018 at 13:10
