About this item

  • ✅LASTS FOR GENERATIONS - Everything about this thumb screw adjustable wrench has been designed with strength in mind. Read the reviews anywhere online for our tools and you'll repeatedly see happy tradesmen, some who have inherited these tools from generations before and are still going strong after 30 plus years. You'll never need to buy another set of pipe grips!
  • ✅ALWAYS BRITISH MADE: All of Footprint's thumb adjusting wrenches are manufactured in Sheffield, where there is an international reputation for steel-making. Each Footprint pipe wrench goes through multiple manufacturing processes to transform a bar of high quality carbon steel into this incredibly strong and long-lasting toolbox staple loved by plumbers, gas fitters, farmers, industry and utility companies worldwide.
  • ✅HEAVY-DUTY PLUMBERS WRENCH: The pressed steel handle and drop-forged hook made from the highest quality Carbon steel provide the hand tool with superior strength. The teeth are machine ground and precision hardened to prevent wear over time to maintain the powerful grip that tightens as more pressure is exerted. Works like an adjustable spanner or tap spanner with teeth and easy one-handed use.
  • ✅DESIGNED FOR ONE-HANDED USE: Due to high demand, the original Footprint pattern 698 pipe wrench got an upgrade! Our Thumbturn pattern pipe wrench has an easier way change the jaw size. The adjustable nut allows the user to alter the size of the jaws with one hand and without having to unscrew the screw, slide the jaws up and down and then re-screw back into the frame. The thumb screw is knurled for better grip.
  • ✅250 YEARS MANUFACTURING EXPERIENCE: We know a thing or two about manufacturing quality hand tools and when we develop a product, it sets the benchmark in the industry. We've been manufacturing since the 18th century and focus on delivering affordable high quality apparatus. Stone masons rely on our quality tools for cutting brick every day... worldwide.

About Footprint

Footprint has been manufacturing hand tools in the UK since the 18th century. They continue to manufacture most of their tools from their Sheffield based factory.

Footprint was forced to close temporarily during the 2008 recession, while they were moving factories and investing in the future. They have since rebuilt themselves.

They're owned by the 4th generation of the same family, with one of the main forgers being the current managing director.

Made in Britain

Footprint is a member of the Made in Sheffield and Made in Britain groups. These groups represent hundreds of Sheffield and UK wide manufacturers of high quality products.

Footprint still own and operate their Sheffield based factory where they specialise in the forging and heat treatment of steel, in particular the production of hand tools.

Most Footprint tools are still Made in Sheffield, Britain. Given the global nature of manufacturing a small number of products are imported.

    The wrench has a lot more play in it than I expected, maybe not as precise as say a Knipex Cobra. It does appear to be made of good material. The wrench did come in useful when removing a basin nut.

    Spot on for installing conduit. As an electrician I prefer these to grips! These foot prints give a better grip and all round performance. I’m on my second pair and these are still just as good when I brought them 10 years ago. I got a second pair as was needed for when taking off right conduit boxes to stop the conduit spinning.
