Abstract: A basin wrench includes a body having a hand gripping portion being configured such that a hand of a user of the basin wrench can grip the body and provide sufficient torque to rotate the body to tighten an associated basin nut. The body can include a longitudinal slot generally parallel with a longitudinal axis of the body. The basin wrench can also include an insert configured to engage an associated nut and/or an associated water shut-off valve. An additional insert can be provided to engage a strainer basket and/or be engaged by an associated wrench or rod. A method for rotating a basin nut is also provided.

Abstract: A pivoting jaw pipe wrench comprises a fixed jaw including a plurality of discrete teeth, each for a different one of a plurality of pipes having different diameters. A pivotal jaw member has first and second jaw faces at an obtuse angle to one another and displaceable toward and away from the fixed jaw, whereby a pipe of given diameter to be gripped by the wrench is cradled between the first and second jaw surfaces and engaged by the one of the discrete teeth provided on the arcuate jaw for the pipe of given diameter.
