When electricians need more power in their cutting pliers, extending the handle length is one way to make it happen. Why not apply the same principle when it comes to pipe wrenches? The new Milwaukee 10L Pipe Wrench with PowerLength Handle does just that.
10-Second Summary
- 10โณ pipe wrench jaw with 17โณ handle
- Offers more leverage without modifying a 10โณ pipe wrench
- Overbite jaw
- Slim jaw profile
- Price $42.49
- Available in October 2018
The Cheater was certainly an innovative way to give plumbers more leverage when they need it but a more compact length when they donโt. The Milwaukee 10L Pipe Wrench just goes for the extra length, essentially creating a high-leverage form of a 10โณ pipe wrench by giving it a 17โณ handle.
Pricing is still to be determined, but we expect to see online retailers accepting pre-orders soon for the October 2018 launch.
What Milwaukeeย Says
โSince the 10โ pipe wrench was brought to market decades ago it has experienced very little change in overall form and function. Users have often had to modify this tool with a piece of conduit or pipe to achieve the additional reach and leverage needed in low clearances. Our new 10L Pipe Wrench is uniquely different from any other 10โ offering because we are the first to challenge the historical length of this tool.ย Through a new-to-world 17โ POWERLENGTH Handle, this pipe wrench will give users maximum leverage and the best access in tight spots โ something theyโve needed for close to 90 years.โ
