What task would this spanner be used for? (Pic)

I came by this unusual looking spanner a few days ago. It looks quite distinctive, I feel someone will recognise it and what it is used for.

Missing the chain as an oil filter remover,perhaps

Wild guess I would say its a spoke spanner.

That's a shelving/hanger bracket, unless I'm mistaken.

+1 to that. LHS of lower edge is top. RHS of lower edge allows different shelf angles from horizontal to about 45 degree droop.

That's a shelving/hanger bracket from a retail display unit, unless I'm mistaken.

Good call - dexion or similar?

Can't recall exactly, but I can recall seeing that style of arm a few times. Usually shop displays. Which probably means I've accidentally unhooked one a time or two & then had to figure how to refit it.

Came to post exactly that, definitely a shelving bracket.

Yeah without doubt a shelving bracket, also had loads of them in the past, came in handy for making other stuff, had some about 6 inch deep.

It's a retail storage / display shelf holding spanner
