How to use

Select a pipe or fitting within the wrench’s 1" capacity and open the jaw by turning or sliding the adjustment mechanism to a slightly oversized setting. Place the wrench on the pipe so the teeth bite into the surface, then tighten the jaw until it grips securely. Apply steady turning force in the intended direction, keeping the tool aligned with the pipe to minimise slippage. After use, loosen the jaw and store the wrench in a dry place to reduce corrosion.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the pipe surface and wrench teeth before use; for plated or soft-material pipes, reduce clamping force to avoid surface damage. Use controlled force and, where necessary, support adjacent fittings to prevent stress on joints. Regularly clean and lightly lubricate the adjustment mechanism to ensure smooth operation.
