Slim Grip Tongs (Pipe Wrench)

Slim Grip Pipe Tongs for making up and breaking out drill pipes. Drilling rig tools Australia.
Slim grip tongs are designed for gripping pipe where access is restricted. Their narrow profile allows them to fit into confined spaces while still providing strong gripping force on round pipe and casing.
Unlike a traditional Stillson wrench, slim grip tongs distribute force differently and are better suited to applications where clearance around the pipe is limited or where larger diameter pipe must be handled.
Any gripping tool can mark softer materials if excessive force is applied. Correct sizing and proper technique minimise surface damage while maintaining a secure grip.
Select tongs based on the outside diameter of the pipe rather than the nominal pipe size. Using the correct size provides better grip and improves operator safety.
Regularly inspect pivots, gripping surfaces and fasteners, lubricate moving joints and replace worn components before they affect grip or safety.
