I am sure that is why the sizes were there, but they have now pretty much gone into obsolescence. I remember the snap on dealer, almost 20 years ago, asking why our purchaser was trying to get these oddball sizes, and that snap-on didn't carry some of the combination wrenches any more. It seems to me they coupled some of the 32ths sizes with the 11/16 size.
There is a thread on the HAMB about these sizes......many of the guys confessed to having a drawer full of them, but have never used them.
That is also likely the reason so many weatherhead brass fittings get rounded off.
