REED hand tools are for the professional trade and are warranted against all failure due to defects in workmanship and materials for the normal life of the tool.2Malleable iron cast handle | REED thru-bolt ratchet handles and sockets substantially reduce the time required to tighten or remove nuts | Assembly time and cost are cut considerably | Works faster than a pipe wrench | For larger hardware found on 30" - 36" diameter pipe
