Tough, Reliable, Valuable

Significantly more durable and much more affordable than competing offerings and alternative approaches to the same mission. I really need chain wrenches and use them fairly regularly and this one fills a niche and does a great job when I need to change the water filters in my house.

Pros
  • Good Cause
Cons
  • Crumpled

Get these, not the cheap ones.

I have used them on several plumbing and irrigation projects. They worked great. Others try to cut corners and use tools in ways they weren't intended. I just buy the right tools for the job. Irwin has always been a quality brand. I pay an extra $5-10 for their products every day.

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Speed

Boat Oil/Fuel Filter and Removal

I changed the oil on my boat with a regular oil filter wrench, the type that pinches and tightens when you push it, the filter wouldn't budge but tried my hand at it bend over Yes, I had quite a few filters, still didn't work. So I went to the dock and saw a mechanic that I use a lot, he had one of those Irwin locking chain clamp wrenches that he wanted to lend me. I put this Irwin wrench on the problematic filter, adjusted the chain around the oil filter rim, and immediately unscrewed the…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Quick Start Guide

Great tool. Ideal for turning pipes or removing stuck oil filters.

Great tool. This tool works much better than a strap wrench as it can be tightened like a regular vise. Although it's certainly not as flimsy as a strap wrench. I mainly use this for oil or fuel filters but it has many other uses. Vise Grip also sells extension chains for this tool.

Pros
  • Great for non-standard parts
Cons
  • Not sure

Just what I needed

If the bike had a stuck oil filter this thing could have been welded on. Tried 2 different oil filter wrenches and a strap wrench, wouldn't budge. This thing not only blew him up in the cramped space I was working in, it crushed him like butter. A bit pricey for a tool that can only be used once a year, but it will most likely be the last filter wrench I ever need to buy.

Pros
  • Made from high quality heat treated alloy steel for durability
Cons
  • Exorbitant price

You need these tools!

Must have in your toolbox. I recommend buying a pair to use in opposition. Honestly, once you have a chain vise, you'll wonder how you ever managed without it. These are by far my favorite instruments. I've just bought a second pair because I packed them in a padded checkered case that was crushed on a trip to a distant international lab. The wrenches were bent beyond use and I was 10,000 miles from any hope of replacing them. I was seriously upset and had to settle for substandard arrangements

Pros
  • Classic trigger for maximum lockout power
Cons
  • Fade Out
