Constructed from alloy steel with a straight head and V-jaw profile, the 82169 features GEARWRENCH's K9 jaw design, which maintains a strong grip even when positioned at up to a 35-degree angle. The jaw opens to 1.6 inches across 20 adjustment positions, giving the user precise fit on nuts, fittings, and pipe without slipping. The dipped vinyl handle provides a firm, comfortable hold during extended use. This plier is intended for licensed plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and general tradespeople.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 82169 is suited for residential and light commercial service work where a reliable, adjustable-jaw plier is part of the standard tool kit. Its straight jaw and straight head configuration make it well-suited for working on hex fasteners, pipe connections, and fittings in tight or open spaces. The 20-position adjustment range reduces the need to change tools when moving between differently sized components on the same job. It is packaged individually and is a common addition to service van tool sets across plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical trades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eK9 jaw design maintains grip at angles up to 35 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eV-jaw profile for secure contact on round and hex fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e20 adjustment positions with 1.6 inch maximum jaw opening capacity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight head and straight jaw configuration for direct access to fasteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDipped vinyl handle for grip comfort during extended use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlloy steel body construction for durability under trade use conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose tongue and groove plier for residential and commercial trade applications.

Before using on live plumbing or gas lines, shut off the relevant supply and depressurize the line per local code requirements. Avoid using pliers on soft fittings where jaw marks could compromise the seal. Replace worn pliers that no longer hold their adjustment position securely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlier Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tongue and Groove\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJaw Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: V-Jaw, Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlier Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJaw Opening Capacity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJaw Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Positions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Dipped Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide Cutter\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10.31 inches (L) x 4 inches (W) x 0.62 inches (H)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.54 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GEARWRENCH\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 82169\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GEARWRENCH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542332145970,"sku":"82169","price":32.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0e153c53f4cc537b614ac88136ab802f.jpg?v=1785898451","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gearwrench-82169-tongue-and-groove-pliers-8-inch-20-position","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
