The aluminum construction reduces overall tool weight compared to traditional cast-iron models, lowering arm fatigue during extended use on overhead or confined-space work. It delivers a maximum pipe capacity of 2.5 inches, covering the majority of common residential and light commercial pipe sizes. This wrench is a standard tool for licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians who need dependable bite and jaw strength without the added weight of a steel wrench.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 31100 is suited for use on threaded pipe installations, valve replacement, fixture rough-in, and general pipe makeup in both residential and light commercial settings. It performs on iron, steel, and plastic-coated pipe within its 2.5-inch capacity range. The 18-inch handle length provides adequate leverage for tightening and breaking loose standard-size fittings and couplings encountered in plumbing and mechanical service work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e18-inch overall length for leverage on standard pipe makeup and removal tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAluminum body reduces tool weight compared to cast-iron pipe wrenches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2.5-inch maximum pipe capacity covers common residential and light commercial pipe sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSelf-adjusting jaw designed for positive grip on threaded pipe and fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a package quantity of 6 units per case, suitable for stocking service vehicles or shop inventory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose pipe wrench for use on standard threaded pipe and fittings up to 2.5 inches in diameter in plumbing and mechanical trade applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tool is used by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians during pipe installation and service.
