11 Apr 2010 How to stop a strap wrench from slipping
I was trying to use a strap wrench to remove a PVC fitting on our pool’s filter. It was about a 3 inch pipe, and I have 2 different sizes of strap wrench, and they just kept slipping. The surface was clean and dry, but no luck.
My 9 year old daughter suggested that I use some tape to make the wrench stick better. Brilliant! I got some double sided tape, put it around the pipe, and it worked perfectly. Just thought I’d pass this tip on – I’m sure it could be useful for removing things like oil filters.
