Proto J265SGXL Tongue and Groove Plier 11 Position

Product Description

The PROTO J265SGXL is a gooseneck-style tongue and groove plier built for trade professionals who need a reliable, multi-position gripping tool on the job. Featuring a serrated straight jaw with a 4-13/64 inch capacity, it handles a wide range of pipe, nut, and fitting sizes without slipping. The curved jaw tongue and groove design allows for 11 adjustable positions, giving technicians precise control across different workpiece diameters. At 16 inches in overall length and 2.62 pounds, it delivers solid leverage without excessive bulk. The vinyl-wrapped handle provides grip and reduces hand fatigue during extended use.

This plier is suited for plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical service work where a versatile gripping tool is required. The 11-position adjustment range makes it practical for both residential and light commercial applications. Technicians use it to turn fittings, grip pipe, and work in spaces where fixed-size wrenches are impractical. The standard head style fits typical service scenarios without requiring a specialty access profile.

Installation Notes

This tool is used by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and mechanical contractors for gripping, turning, and holding pipe fittings and components. Always isolate and shut off water, gas, or refrigerant supply before working on active systems. Select the correct jaw position before applying force to avoid jaw slip and workpiece damage. Do not use as a substitute for a torque wrench where specific fastener torque values are required.
