Abstract: A modular suppressor kit includes a modular suppressor and suppressor tool. The modular suppressor includes a barrel attachment portion that has a central passage. The barrel attachment portion is configured to attach to a firearm barrel. The modular suppressor includes a cap portion that has a central passage. The modular suppressor includes a body portion that has an internal baffle structure and an expansion chamber. The body portion is attachable to, and separable from, the barrel attachment portion and the cap portion. The body portion defines a central passage that is alignable with the central passage of the barrel attachment portion and the central passage of the cap portion. The suppressor tool has an engagement feature for engaging with at least one of the barrel attachment portion, cap portion, and body portion.

Abstract: A wrench having a collection of moveably positionable jaws which is pivotally affixed to a handle is described. The wrench can include the use of one or more regions of friction material located about an enclosed gripping region. The wrench finds particular application in drilling industries.

Abstract: The present invention can include an apparatus having both a wire nut receiver and a wire insulation stripper thus allowing a user to strip insulation from wires and then connect them using a wire nut with the same apparatus. The apparatus can include a wire nut receiver defining a cavity having a proximal end and a distal end and one or more stripper blades disposed adjacent to the distal end of the cavity of the wire nut receiver. The apparatus can also include a driver, such as for example a hex driver, connected to the wire nut receiver and the one or more stripper blades. Alternatively, the apparatus can be configured such that the diameter of the one or more stripper blades relative to a rotational axis is variable, which in turn allows a user to easily account for different thicknesses or gauges of wire to be stripped.

Abstract: A valve wrench safety system used to prevent a valve wrench from slipping off a valve, having a housing with an opening in the top side where a lock slide bar is sized to fit and slide in and out of a chamber through the opening using a sliding slot on a lever-control-side, wherein the housing is attached to a rod region of a valve wrench using arms attaching to and extending from the housing to a plate by sandwiching the wrench rod region between the front surface of the housing and the plate.

Abstract: A wrench has an elongated handle pivotally connected to a first clamping jaw which is pivotally connected to a second clamping jaw, The wrench has a spring-loaded latch that locks the second clamping jaw to the first clamping jaw. The spring-loaded latch is disengaged by actuating a push-button release mechanism disposed within the handle that causes the spring-loaded latch to pivot to release the second clamping jaw. This press-button release mechanism enables single-handed operation of the wrench. Accordingly, a user can hold and operate two wrenches simultaneously which is not possible with the prior-art wrenches. In other words, the user may clamp a first self-clamping wrench to a tube, pipe, or other such object and then, with only one hand, clamp a second self-clamping wrench to the same tube, pipe, or object.

Abstract: A wrench comprising an elongated handle having a proximal end and first and second pivots at a distal end, and a spring-loaded latch pivotally connected to the second pivot, the latch being movable about the second pivot from an unlocked position to a locked position. The wrench includes a first clamping jaw having a first end pivotally connected to the handle at the first pivot and having a second end that includes a third pivot. A second clamping jaw is pivotally connected to the first clamping jaw via the third pivot to constitute with the first clamping jaw an articulated clamping jaw. The second clamping jaw has a free end for displacing the spring-loaded latch from the unlocked position to the locked position. The latch locks the free end of the second clamping jaw when the free end of the second clamping jaw has pushed past the latch.
