Ridgid 12" Spud Wrench; 12 in Spud Wrench

This is my go-to tool whenever I'm working on polished chrome parts. I see so many mangled and gouged chrome fittings on service calls...it makes me wonder what kind of gorilla worked on it and why didn't he have a wrench like this. For the ultimate in protection I'll use a folded paper towel around the part and adjust the spud wrench snug against the piece...absolute perfect looking installations every time. Great for assembling all threaded parts because it won't chew up the surfaces like a pipe wrench will. I always carry two of these in the tool box for that reason. A very precise and heavy duty tool.
