Tuning wrench (also called a tuning lever or tuning hammer) is a specialized socket wrench used to tune string instruments such as the piano, harp, and hammer dulcimer, that have strings wrapped around tuning pins with square heads.
Other string instruments do not require a tuning wrench because their tuning pegs or pins come with handles (as with the violin), or geared tuning machines (as with the guitar or banjo).
