Crescent RT212CVN-05 Tongue and Groove Pliers 12 in

Product Description

The CRESCENT RT212CVN-05 is a 12-inch tongue and groove plier designed for gripping, turning, and holding a wide range of fasteners, fittings, and pipe. The straight jaw opens to 2.25 inches, giving tradespeople enough capacity to tackle common plumbing and mechanical tasks. The plastic-dipped rawhide-colored handle features a curved style for improved grip control during extended use. A black oxide finish provides corrosion resistance in wet or high-humidity work environments. This tool is used by plumbers, HVAC technicians, electricians, and general maintenance professionals as a standard hand tool in their everyday kit.

The RT212CVN-05 is suited for residential and light commercial service work where a reliable, mid-size tongue and groove plier is needed. Common applications include tightening and loosening pipe fittings, conduit locknuts, and mechanical fasteners. The 12-inch length provides adequate leverage without being oversized for confined spaces in mechanical rooms, utility closets, or behind fixtures. It is sold as an individual unit.
