The tool measures 24 inches in overall length with a 15.5-inch throat depth, providing extended reach into deep workspaces. The adjustable jaw opens from 0 to 10 inches, accommodating a wide range of pipe diameters, fittings, and structural components. The swivel pad tip distributes clamping force evenly across irregular or finished surfaces, reducing the risk of marring or deforming the workpiece. This tool is typically installed and used by plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and general trade mechanics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe IR28 is suited for residential and commercial service applications where a standard pliers or pipe wrench lacks the grip range or locking capability required. Common uses include securing large-diameter pipe, holding fittings during soldering or threading, and clamping structural members during fabrication. The 10-inch jaw capacity makes it particularly useful on large conduit, duct flanges, and oversized pipe fittings encountered in mechanical rooms and commercial HVAC or plumbing installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e24-inch overall length for extended reach and leverage\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eJaw opens 0 to 10 inches to accommodate large-diameter pipe and fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e15.5-inch throat depth for access in deep or confined work areas\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSwivel pad tip distributes clamping load evenly on irregular or finished surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLocking mechanism holds grip without continuous hand pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose locking pliers for trade and industrial use where a 0 to 10 inch jaw range and 24-inch overall length are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tool is used by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and mechanical contractors. Before applying the locking pliers to any pressurized system component, isolate and depressurize the line per applicable code requirements. Adjust the jaw width to the workpiece before locking to avoid overloading the adjustment mechanism. The swivel pad tip is intended for use on finished or coated surfaces where standard serrated jaws could cause damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThroat Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJaw Opening Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0 to 10 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24SP Locking Pliers with Swivel Pad Tip\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 038548000282\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold As\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\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: IRWIN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: IR28\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IRWIN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51343125872946,"sku":"IR28","price":75.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310499510.jpg?v=1782017417","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/irwin-ir28-locking-pliers-swivel-pad-tip-24-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
