Typically, a repair kit includes a variety of tools such as screwdrivers, pliers, wrenches, and hammers. These tools are selected to cater to a broad range of repair needs, allowing individuals to dismantle, fix, or replace broken components or parts. In addition to the tools, a repair kit may also contain supplementary materials and supplies like adhesive, tapes, screws, nuts, and bolts.

Etymology of REPAIR KIT
The word "repair" originated from the Latin word "reparare", which means "to restore, renew, or repair". It entered the English language in the 14th century.
The term "kit" comes from the Middle Dutch (a West Germanic language spoken from the 11th to the 15th century) word "kitte", which means a wooden vessel or wooden container. It was later adopted into Middle English as "kit" and referred to a small wooden container or a collection of tools.
The combination of the words "repair" and "kit" began to be used together in the English language during the 19th century, to refer to a collection of tools, materials, or parts used for repairing or restoring something. Over time, "repair kit" has become a commonly used term to describe a set of tools or items used for repair purposes.
