About Me

rubber sealing strip Suppliers are a terrific — and therefore cool — tool. There are small “domestic” versions for pickle jar lids & shiny plumbing, medium sizes for tough home and work problems, and larger no-nonsense versions for truly putting a twist on bigger things. Any of these sizes will put a handle on odd shapes, too (round is not the only option). And the beauty of them is that it’s difficult for them to leave a mark (no, that’s not a challenge). They’re just a strap with a lever attached.

The good ones have straps that grip will but do not rubber bellow Suppliers really stretch (this is a key). Also, the straps have to grip what’s being turned as well as gripping the business end of the wrench. A prone-ness to stretching or slipping really just negates its purpose, so wrenches like that need to be avoided. In one of my tool bags I’ve been carrying a simple, small, plastic handled version. It’s got a rubber handle Suppliers strap with some internal fibers to prevent stretching. It’s only occasionally frustrating and usually works just fine. Years ago we used a beautiful heavy strap wrench from Ridgid (they’re now also available in aluminum). It’s likely overkill for normal life use, but wow. Great and effective version of a strap wrench.
