Ridgid 31105 Model 824 24" Aluminum Straight Pipe Wrench
Maximum Leverage. 40% Lighter. Professional 3" Capacity for Industrial Main Lines.
The Ridgid 31105 (Model 824) is the definitive choice for high-capacity industrial pipe work. For professionals who require the extreme torque of a 2-foot wrench but refuse to lug around the massive weight of cast iron, the Model 824 is a game-changer. Crafted from professional-grade aluminum, this wrench provides the same legendary durability and unyielding grip as the Ridgid heavy-duty iron series but at nearly half the weight.
With a massive 3-inch (80 mm) jaw capacity, the Model 824 is engineered for the biggest challenges on the jobsite—from municipal water mains to heavy industrial gas headers. Featuring a full floating forged hook jaw, it delivers the relentless, non-slip "bite" that allows professionals at The Fastener Group to break loose high-torque fittings with ease.
Key Features & Professional Benefits:
- Professional Aluminum Construction: Provides massive industrial leverage while being approximately 40% lighter than cast iron, significantly reducing worker fatigue and the risk of strain during overhead or repetitive use.
- Large 3" (80 mm) Capacity: The professional standard for industrial service lines, water treatment facilities, and large-scale mechanical plant maintenance.
- Self-Cleaning Adjustment Threads: The oversized nut features specialized threads that automatically eject grit, grease, and pipe dope, ensuring smooth jaw adjustment even in the filthiest conditions.
- Forged Alloy Steel Jaws: Precision heat-treated hook and heel jaws provide a "teeth-first" grip on black iron, galvanized, and stainless steel pipe that simply does not slip.
- High-Leverage I-Beam Handle: Optimized for maximum torque transfer, the ergonomic handle allows you to apply full body weight to seized fittings with total confidence.
- Replaceable Jaw System: Designed to be a lifetime tool; both the hook and heel jaws are easily replaceable to keep your 24" wrench biting like new for decades.
- Ridgid Lifetime Warranty: Fully backed by the Ridgid Full Lifetime Warranty against material defects and workmanship.
