131 Pipe wrench (American type)

The 131 American-style pipe wrench is a robust professional tool for safe use in potentially explosive atmospheres (Ex/ATEX zones). It is made of aluminium copper (AC) or beryllium copper (BC), making it spark-free, anti-magnetic and corrosion-resistant. It therefore meets the highest safety requirements in sensitive industrial environments.

The American type is characterised by its particularly sturdy construction and self-clamping tooth geometry. This design ensures a secure, firm grip on pipes, screw connections and fittings and enables efficient working even under high loads. The pipe wrench is ideal for installation, maintenance and repair work.

Typical areas of application are the chemical and petrochemical industries, refineries, mining and offshore installations, where spark formation must be consistently avoided and maximum occupational safety is crucial.
