Key specifications

• Maximum jaw capacity: 1 inch
• Design type: Straight plumbing wrench
• Material: Hardened steel

How to use

To use the wrench, open the jaws by adjusting the nut until the opening is slightly wider than the pipe or fitting. Place the jaws around the object and tighten the nut until the teeth make firm contact with the surface. Apply force in the direction of the jaw opening to turn the fitting. Ensure the wrench is positioned correctly to prevent slipping and always maintain a firm grip on the handle during operation.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the diameter of the pipes you intend to work with
• Ensure the straight-pattern design fits your specific workspace requirements
• Check if the material of your pipes is compatible with the hardened steel teeth of the wrench

Usage recommendations

Always ensure the wrench is clean and free of debris before use to maintain optimal grip. Store the tool in a dry environment to prevent corrosion and periodically lubricate the adjustment nut to ensure smooth operation.
