The Ridgid 47057 (Model 812) is the preferred daily driver for mechanical contractors who refuse to compromise between power and portability.

With a substantial 2-inch jaw capacity, the Model 812 is designed to tackle everything from residential water lines to commercial gas mains. Featuring a full floating forged hook jaw, it delivers the instant, aggressive "bite" and quick release that has made Ridgid the gold standard on jobsites for over a century.
