Klein Tools S12HB Strap Wrench 12 Inch Handle

Product Description

The KLEIN TOOLS S12HB is a strap wrench designed for gripping and turning pipe, fittings, filters, and polished shafts without marring or deforming the surface. The wrench uses a urethane-covered, high-strength belt attached to a lightweight I-beam handle measuring 12 inches in length. The cam-action mechanism delivers uniform, high-torque application across a capacity range of 1.5 to 5 inches in diameter. It is fully adjustable, allowing use in tight access spaces where conventional wrenches cannot function. Plumbers, pipefitters, and general mechanical tradespeople install and service this tool regularly on a wide range of applications.

This strap wrench is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, mechanical, and maintenance work. It handles polished pipe and fittings, plastic pipe, PVC conduit, glass pipe, oil and water filters, and polished shafts. It is also effective on alternator belts, flywheels, and propeller assemblies. The non-marring urethane strap makes it the right choice wherever metal-jaw wrenches would scratch or damage a finished surface.

Installation Notes

This tool is used by plumbers, pipefitters, mechanics, and maintenance technicians. Before use, ensure the strap is fully seated and the cam latch is engaged to prevent slippage under load. Do not use the strap wrench as a substitute for a torque wrench where a specific torque value is required. Inspect the urethane strap for cuts or deterioration before each use, and replace the strap if damage is present.
