Key Features

• Push-Button Rapid Adjustment: Facilitates time-saving and precise adjustment of the gripping width directly on the workpiece at the push of a button, complemented by a self-locking action to prevent unintentional shifting of the jaws.
• S-Type Jaw Design: The specialized S-type jaw provides a secure three-point contact for a strong, slip-resistant grip on round, flat, square, and hexagonal workpieces, crucial for reliable handling of pipes and fittings. Its induction-hardened teeth ensure high wear resistance and extended tool life.
• Durable Construction: Manufactured from chrome vanadium electric steel, forged and multi-stage oil-hardened, with completely hardened handles, this wrench offers maximum load capability and long-lasting performance in demanding conditions. A corrosion-resistant coating further enhances its robust build.
• Ergonomic and Safe Operation: Designed with a plastic-coated handle for comfortable, non-slip use during extended tasks, minimizing hand fatigue. A built-in pinch guard enhances safety by preventing operators' fingers from being pinched.
