Westward 39CG43 Chain Wrench
The Westward 39CG43 is a single-end chain wrench built from alloy steel for gripping and turning pipes and fittings. It suits plumbers, maintenance technicians and mechanics who need a secure hold on round surfaces up to four inches in outside diameter. The twelve-inch overall length provides leverage for stubborn connections in industrial and commercial settings.
Check pipe size and clearance before ordering
Verify that the pipe or fitting you intend to turn falls within the two-inch minimum and four-inch maximum outside diameter range. Ensure there is enough swing room around the workpiece for the twelve-inch handle to rotate freely. Confirm that an alloy-steel chain is acceptable for the material you are working on, as the tool is neither nonsparking nor non-magnetic.
Replaces strap wrenches
This chain wrench upgrades from strap-style or smooth-jaw adjustable wrenches when grip on dirty, corroded or oversized pipe becomes unreliable. The alloy-steel chain bites securely where straps slip, making the jump worthwhile for heavy-duty pipe work up to four inches in diameter. It is not suited for applications requiring spark-resistant or non-magnetic tools.

Questions about this item
Does the chain wrench come with any extra chains or fittings, or is the tool complete as shipped?
The tool is supplied as a single unit with an alloy steel chain and an I-beam handle; no additional chains or fittings are included.
The model shows 17/32 in — what does that measurement refer to and how does it affect which pipe sizes I can grip?
The 17/32 in figure is part of the model designation; the wrench is built for a minimum pipe diameter of 2 in and an outside diameter of 4 in.
With a 12 in overall length, how much torque can I realistically apply on a 4 in pipe without the chain slipping?
The 12 in handle gives a practical lever arm for high torque on pipes up to 4 in outside diameter; the alloy steel chain resists stretching under load.
