[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was removing a pipe fence attached to my barn. This Knipex 12 in. pipe wrench gave me all the powerful bite & leverage my 14" pipe wrench gave me, but at much less weight. I had no problem solidly gripping the 1 7/8" dia. fence pipe. As I was pulling down on the Knipex wrench to turn the pipe, the wrench bit down hard & did not slip once. The front of the lower jaw has a unique upturned lip & the opposing direction of the teeth, kept the wrench from slipping. It took TWO SECOND to spin the adjustment ring from minimum to maximum, opening the jaws from minimum to maximum. It takes a lot longer to do the same thing, with my old wrench. The wrench felt comfortable in my hand, while working with it & applying maximum turning pressure. Side by side, my old & this new Knipex wrench look about the same length, also maximum jaw openings are about the same. My old 14" pipe wrench weighs 3 lbs. 9 ozs. This new Knipex pipe wrench weighs 1 lb. 12 ozs. The Knipex wrench makes my tool bag lighter. This is a very heavy duty pipe wrench & a great time saving tool!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] GRIPS TIGHTLY; REMEMBERS OPENING — Before I obtained the KNIPEX 12 in. Heavy Duty S-Shape Pipe Wrench, I had never heard of nor seen a Swedish Pipe Wrench. It solves two problems that I have had with my tongue and groove pliers and pipe wrenches. First it grips the pipe or object tightly whether it is round or square because its teeth are offset in the opposite direction. Second, it can be adjusted such that it remembers the opening which is a time saver if you are gripping the same size pipe repeatedly. I always seemed to need to readjust my tongue and grove pliers or pipe wrenches, perhaps only slightly, between uses. To prove what a great pipe wrench it is, I was able to remove a nut from a pipe that I had been trying to remove for years. The key was the tight grip and the long handle for leverage. Even though it looks strange, it is now my go to tool for pipe tasks. It can also be used for front end alignment but I don’t think that I will be doing that.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow, this wrench is a different kind of pipe wrench. It is a cross between channel-locks, a standard pipe wrench, and a vise grip. Having used all extensively, this is a fresh approach. The width is very slim which make it useful in those tight situations. The adjustment range is good, and the grip is really great. It's very light weight compared to the old pipe wrenches, it has found a permanent home in my tool box. Nice!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A Swedish style adjustable wrench, a type popular with professionals but less well known to American DIY tool users. Rugged forged construction with 12-inch handle for leverage. The slim tapered jaw fits into tight spaces. The S-shaped face and offset teeth in both directions provide 3-point self-locking contact for exceptionally firm grip on round pipes. The I-beam handle design provides strength and limits weight to 1.84 lb. This wrench has impressive strength and durability. Lifetime warranty by manufacturer Knipex is unlikely to be needed, but scan and save the purchase receipt just in case. Made in Germany.
