Swedish pipe wrench Knipex 83 30 015 Red Stainless steel

The Knipex 83 30 015 Swedish pipe wrench is a 420 mm corner pipe pliers designed for gripping and turning pipes and threaded fittings. Forged from chrome vanadium steel, oil-hardened and powder-coated, it features S-shaped jaws that provide a stable three-point grip and induction-hardened teeth for long-term heavy-duty use. The tool offers infinite adjustment directly on the workpiece and a self-locking action that facilitates applying high torque in the direction of rotation.

Advantages

The captive knurled adjustment screw enables quick, on-piece sizing while the self-locking mechanism secures the wrench under load with only gentle handle pressure. The S-shaped jaw and double T-profile handle deliver high torsional stability and a firm grip, allowing effective one- or two-handed operation. High-quality materials and precise heat treatment increase durability for professional and industrial use.

• Gripping and turning pipes
