Pipe wrench Facom 125A.50 model 125A.50, metric jaw capacity 35–50 mm

Facom 125A.50 is a pipe wrench designed for gripping and turning round fittings with a metric jaw capacity of 35–50 mm. The tool features a compact length suitable for work in confined spaces and a toothed jaw profile that provides a secure bite on pipes and couplings. Constructed to withstand repeated use in plumbing and maintenance tasks, this pipe wrench is intended for controlled torque application and reliable mechanical grip.

Advantages

The wrench offers a defined jaw span of 35–50 mm that covers a range of common pipe diameters, enabling fewer tool changes on site. Its compact overall length helps access tight locations while delivering the leverage required for turning threaded fittings. The hardened, toothed jaw surface improves grip and reduces slippage on metal pipes and fittings during tightening or loosening operations.

Suitable for

• Plumbing installation and repair of metal pipes and couplings
• Maintenance tasks requiring controlled torque on round fittings
• Tight workspaces where a short-length pipe wrench is needed

When it may not be suitable

This pipe wrench is designed specifically for round fittings within the 35–50 mm metric jaw capacity and is not intended for non-cylindrical fasteners such as hex nuts or bolts. It may not be suitable for extremely large-diameter pipes beyond its jaw range or for applications requiring insulated handles for electrical work.

Key specifications

• Jaw capacity: 35–50 mm (metric)
• Tool type: pipe wrench with toothed jaw
• Overall length: compact design suitable for restricted spaces
• Material and finish: durable metal construction with hardened jaw surface

How to use

Position the wrench so the toothed jaw fully engages the circumference of the pipe or fitting. Apply steady force on the handle in the required turning direction while maintaining a secure contact between jaw and workpiece to minimize slippage. For best results, choose the correct jaw engagement position within the 35–50 mm range and avoid using the tool on fittings outside that span. Regularly inspect the toothed surfaces for wear and keep the wrench clean and lightly oiled to preserve moving parts.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the target pipe or fitting diameter falls within the 35–50 mm jaw capacity
• Confirm that a compact-length wrench suits the available working space and required leverage
• Consider whether a tool with insulated handles or a different jaw type is needed for specific tasks

Usage recommendations

Use the Facom 125A.50 for controlled turning of round metal pipes and couplings within its jaw range, avoid excessive impact loads, and maintain the jaw teeth for consistent grip and safety.
