Wrenches
Hi, I'm Mike from RIDGID, and I'm going to walk you through our range of wrenches.
Now one of the features of our pipe wrench is this, all the red painted ones are malleable,
so they will all bend or twist rather than break, and that's an important safety feature.
So looking at the straight pipe wrench first of all, we've got ranges from 6 through to 60-inch,
capable of 8-inch pipe and fittings.
So stepping through, 14-inch straight pipe wrench,
we do them with an automatic jaw function, that's called a RapidGrip.
And then various offsets, so a slight offset we call an end pattern wrench,
or we do them with a heel at the back here, this is called a rapwrench,
that's for occasional hammering use.
You can go all the way to a full 90 degree, and we call that the true offset wrench.
Now all of those are available cross the way here in aluminum.
So they're 40% lighter, but we follow the range in aluminum as we would in the malleable iron.
Moving down the board here to 2-handled wrenches.
So these are available in various jaw configurations
and different offsets, or S-pattern.
Cross here we're into some hex wrenches, so we've got things
like the spud wrench and the offset hex wrench.
The offset one has three jaw contact points here, so they're ideal for brass fittings.
You're not going to round off a brass tank fitting
with something like the offset hex wrench.
Cross here, 2 more for pipe use.
These are strap wrenches, aluminum handles, and the straps are available
in plastic coated versions so that it preserves the pipe, and stops any sort
of friction marks from the strap.
Internal wrench, that's for gripping sink waste, for tightening them up.
And in conjunction with that, we've got things like basin wrenches
with telescoping handles for working behind sinks.
Adjustable wrenches for hex work again.
Down the bottom here we've got some chain wrenches, with either a fixed jaw
or a replaceable jaw, and then large versions of a chain wrench we call the chain tong.
And then finally on the bottom here, if you want increased torque, we have a full range
of what we call a compound leverage wrench.
