It means If a nut have M10 size then we will use that wrench which have 10 on their arm.

But M10 means internal dia. of nut is 10 mm, its outer portion that is hexagonal not 10 mm.

It indicates the OD(outer diameter) of nuts and bolts by which they can be tightened or loosened

My question is not about nut and bolt. My question is about spanners and wrenches...

The number denotes the width across flat of the nut/opening of the spanner (size in mm/inch used for)

Its called Across Flat dimension (A/F). When you see nut or bolt head, it has a hexagonal feature. Which means two opposite parallel faces (total of 6 sides )and the distance between the two opposite face is the number that you are seeing in the Spanner. for example; if a spanner number is 10 in size, it is used to tighten / loosen any part which has two opposite parallel face with 10mm (normally tolerance of spanner will be more in plus side) apart.
Thanks in advance
