Plumbing Practicals with the Pipe Wrench
The classic plumber exercise is to thread and assemble a short pipe run. Trainees clamp galvanised pipe in a Pipe Vice and cut the thread with a Die Stock. They seal the thread and screw on sockets, elbows and tees with two pipe wrenches, one holding the fitting and one turning the pipe.
Students also learn the set-up. The jaw is adjusted so the pipe sits clear of the back of the hook jaw. The wrench is then pulled towards the open side of the jaws so the teeth bite. Hex unions and valve bodies are left to the Adjustable Wrench Set, because the teeth would mark them.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a pipe wrench on nuts and bolts?
Avoid it. The teeth chew the corners of a hex and leave burrs. Use a spanner or an adjustable wrench on nuts, and keep the pipe wrench for round pipe and bar.
How do I avoid marking chrome or coated pipe?
Serrated teeth always leave marks on the surface they grip. Wrap a finished pipe in cloth or use a strap-type wrench, and keep this wrench for galvanised or black steel pipe where marks do not matter.
Why are two pipe wrenches used on one joint?
One wrench backs up the fitting or the pipe already fixed, while the other turns the new length. Without the backing wrench, the turning force passes into joints further along the run and can loosen or twist them.
Why do the jaws slide round the pipe instead of gripping?
Usually the teeth are clogged with paint, rust or dirt, or they are worn. Loose scale on old pipe can also roll under the jaws. Brush the teeth clean and scrape off flaking rust where the jaws will bite. Then set the jaw so the pipe sits clear of the back of the hook jaw.
