Ridgid R31015 Straight Pipe Wrench 2 in 12 in Oal

Product Description

The RIDGID R31015 is a heavy-duty straight pipe wrench built for professional plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors who work with threaded pipe daily. The wrench features a cast-iron housing and an I-beam handle that resists flexing under load. A full floating forged hook jaw keeps consistent contact with pipe surfaces, and self-cleaning threads help prevent debris from interfering with jaw movement. The hook and heel jaws are replaceable, extending the service life of the tool without requiring full replacement. Rated capacity is 2 inches, and overall length is 12 inches.

This wrench is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, gas piping, and mechanical work where reliable grip on steel, iron, or black pipe is required. The 12-inch length provides enough leverage for most standard-diameter pipe work in tight mechanical rooms or open pipe chases. It is sold individually and is appropriate for use wherever GGG-W65IE, Type II, Class A compliant tooling is specified.

Installation Notes

This tool is used by licensed plumbers and pipefitters for makeup and removal of threaded pipe joints.
