USAG/Facom Nylon Strap Wrench (165mm max diameter) - For use where the surface of the parts to be tightened must remain unmarked, such as chrome or other plated pipes, shower heads & sink faucets, connectors or tap fittings, as well as components made from stainless steel or plastic/PVC. High strength replaceable nylon strap (I keep these in stock here in the US for immediate shipment). High-strength light alloy handle. The end of handle is shaped to allow the strap to be self-tightening. Identical to the Facom 138A.48 but at a considerably cheaper price plus US warranty.
The USAG U03120007 (Model 312 B / Size No. 3) is the largest variation in the brand's heavy-duty belt-type strap wrench lineup. This tool uses a significantly elongated strap engineered to grip exceptionally wide pipes, industrial filtration canisters, or smooth-surfaced cylindrical components without damaging or gouging the outer finish.
- Gripping Capacity: Handles cylindrical pipes and fittings with a massive nominal capacity up to 6 inches (maximum physical capacity of 165 mm).
- Strap Dimensions: Outfitted with an ultra-long, high-strength woven nylon ribbon measuring 1500 mm (approx. 59 inches / 4.9 feet) in length to comfortably wrap around large industrial components.
- Body Design: Constructed from a lightweight, structural aluminum alloy body featuring a painted, varnished execution to handle slick workspace oils.
- Weight Profile: Extremely light relative to its capacity, weighing only 310 grams (0.68 lbs) to decrease user hand fatigue during overhead or extended repairs. [
Consumable Maintenance Spare Parts - Because the woven nylon tape handles the heavy traction, it will fray over time under high-load chemical or plumbing applications.
- Exact Replacement Ribbon: The official matching factory spare replacement belt for this specific size No. 3 handle is part number 138.S48
