Made in the USA! in Power & Hand Tools

There are many manufacturers of pipe wrenches, but only one "RIDGID"! I have been using Ridgid pipe wrenches for over 35 years and have never had a single complaint.

You will not regret it!

Pros
  • Hand Tools
Cons
  • Long delivery time

This is the Model 60 - less than 5 feet long

This is the heaviest pipe wrench I've ever seen (plumbing isn't my job). I'm struggling with a 50 year old radiator and need a large toggle wrench.

Aside from that, this wrench is ready for anything - looks like you could hang a car on it without all the sweat. Super strong and super durable. Just not something to help…

I have almost completely destroyed the mother to the point where only a pipe wrench and prayers to god and son can remove this O2 sensor in time for the North Carolina state inspection. IT WORKS OUT! With muscles, a latte and 1 hour of towing the car on the ramps and the…
