Putkipihdit BAHCO 783220, säädettävä, malli BAHCO1-478-08-1-2

The adjustable pipe wrench BAHCO 783220 (model BAHCO1-478-08-1-2) is a manually operated tool designed to grip, hold and turn pipes, couplings and fittings of various diameters. It features an adjustable jaw that allows quick size changes and a toothed gripping surface for secure engagement with round and hexagonal workpieces. The tool is built for tasks in plumbing, maintenance and general mechanical repairs where controlled torque and a non-slip grip are required.

Advantages

The BAHCO wrench provides an adjustable jaw for flexible use on a range of pipe sizes, reducing the need for multiple fixed-size tools. Its serrated jaw profile improves grip on smooth or oily surfaces while minimizing slippage. The handle design offers good leverage for applying torque with controlled effort, and the overall construction emphasizes durability for repeated workshop and field use.

Key specifications

• Type: adjustable pipe wrench with movable jaw
• Material: forged steel components with hardened gripping surfaces
• Jaw adjustment: quick-adjust mechanism to fit different diameters
• Grip: serrated toothed jaw for non-slip engagement
• Handle: long lever handle for increased torque
• Intended use: manual operation for plumbing and repair tasks

How to use

Select a jaw opening slightly larger than the pipe or fitting, then close the adjustable jaw until the serrated teeth engage the workpiece. Position the wrench so the load is applied along the handle toward the fixed jaw for maximum grip. Apply steady force to turn or hold the pipe; avoid sudden impacts. After use, release the adjustment and wipe the wrench clean to remove debris and prevent corrosion.

Recommendations

For safe and effective operation, use the BAHCO adjustable pipe wrench only on components within its jaw capacity and maintain even pressure during turning. Inspect the gripping surfaces regularly for wear and replace the tool if teeth are excessively worn. Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and eye protection when working with pressurized or hot systems.
