From smallest to largest in fractional and inch sizes?
5/32, 3/16,7/32, 1/4, 9/32, 5/16, 11/32, 3/8, 7/16, ½, 9/16, 19/32 (rare, but I've got some), 5/8, 21/32 (just as rare), 11/16, 3/4, 13/16, 7/8, 15/16, 1 inch, in that order. Most sets over an inch only increment in 1/16" fractions, not 1/32". My largest fixed wrench is only 1-9/16".
Ignition/instrument wrench sets will often have sizes smaller than 5/32, and be graduated on 1/64" in some older sets, like 13/64, 15/64, .
