Buying Guide: Pipe Wrenches, Cutters and Augers

Pipe Wrenches
The 24 in. straight pipe wrench has a bold red color, a ductile-iron housing and an I-beam handle, and its capacity is up to 3 in. Pipe wrenches are also offered in 6 in. and 36 in. lengths, and a One Stop Plumber's Wrench is available. Check the pipe size and wrench length against your pipe before you order.

Pipe and Tubing Cutters
The 1-1/8 in. tube cutter cuts copper, brass and aluminum tubing and thin-wall conduit, and its telescoping feed screw keeps the cutter the same length regardless of tubing diameter. The 15/16 in. close quarters tubing cutter is made for restricted spaces and small diameter tubing. Replacement cutter wheels are also offered, including a 1 in. black tube cutter wheel.

Drain and Toilet Augers
The 6 ft. toilet auger clears clogs in toilets or urinals, and its quick lock adjustment extends the cable to clear beyond the toilet. Its removable handle allows an optional drill attachment to power through toilet obstructions. The 25 ft. L cable with drop head auger is ideal for cleaning drain lines, and its drop head leads into down drain pipes.
