When assembling threaded iron piping, which tool utilizes hardened directional teeth and a floating hook jaw designed to wedge tighter against cylindrical stock as rotational force is applied?

Cevap
Pipe wrench
A pipe wrench is specifically engineered for turning cylindrical workpieces. Its floating hook jaw is mounted with slight clearance, allowing it to pivot toward the fixed heel jaw when rotational force is exerted in the forward direction. This rocking action causes the hardened, angled teeth to dig into the metal pipe and increase clamping friction proportionally with applied torque.
