One-Handed Pipe Wrench

One-Handed Pipe Wrench FARM SHOP Tools 27-5-38 You'll only need one hand to use this new, heavy-duty, self-adjusting pipe wrench. Unlike traditional pipe wrenches, there is no need to tighten an adjustment nut with the RAPIDGRIP wrench. The wrench features a spring-loaded hook jaw design that automatically adjusts to fit pipe or other surfaces up to 2 in. in diameter. A thumb trigger allows users to easily apply or remove it from the work piece. "Currently the RAPIDGRIP wrench is the only heavy-duty wrench of its type available in the market," says Matt Ondrejko, product manager, hand tools, at Ridge Tool Co., Elyria, Ohio. The 12-in. wrench weighs about 5 lbs. and has a jaw capacity of 2 in. It's made with a cast handle and forged steel jaw with replaceable parts and is backed by the manufacturer with a lifetime warranty. You can purchase it wherever Ridgid tools are sold, or order it on line at toolup.com or grainger.com. The online price is under $25, including shipping.
