Pipe Wrench
The pipe wrench is one of the most important and vital tools that everyone should have in their plumbing toolbox at home.
In general, pipe wrenches are used for gripping and turning. Usually, plumbers are using two pipe wrenches.
Moreover, this plumbing tool is used to tighten and loosens pipes as well as fittings.
Additionally, the pipe wrench can help you to keep a firm grasp on the fixture.
Usually, plumbers are wrapping up a cloth around the pipe wrench so that they are not going to damage the fixture’s finish.
All in all, it is important for you to have in mind not to use this type of tool for hardened steel hex nuts or other fittings since they can ruin the head.
