Ridgid 24-Inch Heavy-Duty Steel Straight Pipe Wrench – Model 31030, 2-1/2″ Jaw Capacity, Cast Iron Handle

Condition: Used – Good working condition. Shows cosmetic wear: paint is spotty, tool is dirty from use, with minor surface rust in non-critical areas. Jaws open and close freely, teeth have good grip. No cracks or damage to main frame.

This 24″ Ridgid Heavy-Duty Steel Straight Pipe Wrench is a time-tested, professional-grade tool built to withstand rigorous use in plumbing, mechanical, and industrial pipe-fitting jobs. The wrench features a strong cast iron handle, hardened steel jaws, and a full-floating forged hook jaw with self-cleaning threads and easily replaceable hook and heel jaws. This model, commonly associated with Ridgid Part No. 31030, provides excellent leverage and durability, capable of handling pipe diameters up to 2-1/2″. Despite being in used condition, this wrench is still very much a jobsite-ready tool.
