Spanner (6)

I believe the answer is:

wrench

'spanner' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for wrench that I've seen before include "Sudden violent twist" , "Violent twist - (adjustable) spanner" , "prize" , "Violent twist; tool" , "Tear away" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald and the Evening Standard.
