Bahco Non-Sparking Pipe Wrench

Bahco’s Pipe wrench or Stillson wrench is an adjustable wrench used for turning soft iron pipes and fittings with a rounded surface. The adjustable jaw allows it to lock in the frame so that any forward pressure on the handle tends to pull the jaws tighter together. Teeth angled in the direction of turn dig into the soft pipe. They are not intended for use on hardened steel hex nuts or other fittings because they would ruin the head. If a hex nut is soft enough that it becomes rounded beyond use, a pipe wrench is sometimes used to break the bolt or nut free.
