A modified basin wrench including an elongated rod assembly, wrench head assembly, handle assembly, and a pivoting assembly is disclosed herein. The wrench head assembly is modified in a way to allow the user to fasten and/or loosen the water supply locknut and faucet shank nut simultaneously. The modified basin wrench further includes a handle assembly that is hingedly attached to the wrench head assembly by a pivot assembly in order to help the user grasp the faucet nut at a comfortable angle in hard to reach places. Furthermore, this can allow the user to fasten and loosen the water supply locknut and/or faucet shank nut without having to lie down. The modified basin wrench also includes a handle assembly that can be used to adjust the grip of the tool and allows the user to operate the wrench with one hand.

Fittings that generally include a unitary body having an outer surface and an inner lumen forming a void within said unitary body. The lumen is configured to receive threads for mating with the threads of a female sub end of a pipe or tube. The outer surface includes at least one aperture for receiving a tool that can be inserted within said aperture so as to rotate the fitting about an axis that extends through the lumen of the unitary body. The at least one apertures provide a safe and convenient way to tighten and loosen the fitting during the process of coupling pipe or tubing.

A multifunction socket tool is provided that has first socket component for engagement with a first size drive portion of a threaded fastener, and a second socket component for engagement with a second size drive portion of a threaded fastener, with the second size being smaller than the first size The second socket component translates from a first position where it can torque a drive portion of the second size to a second position where the first socket component can torque a drive portion of the first size. The first socket component includes a first pair of opposed slots for receiving and torqueing the eye of an eyebolt, and the second socket component includes a second pair of opposed slots for aligning the first pair of slots with the eye prior to engagement of the eye by the first pair slots.

A faucet installation tool includes at least two coupling units. Every adjacent two of the coupling units are detachably connected together. A hollow area is formed between middle portions of the coupling units. Tops of the coupling units are formed with a first socket portion. The first socket portion is configured to receive a lock nut used for installing and fixing a threaded connecting pipe of a faucet, improving the connection strength between the first socket portion and the lock nut. The faucet installation tool does not require a large lateral space and is convenient to tighten the lock nut when in use.

A tanker fastener removal tool includes a ring and handle secured perpendicularly to one (1) end of the ring. Within the ring are disposed a pair of perpendicular rings of which each in turn as a protruding hook. The device is configured to secure about a fastener of a hatch access cover of a tanker truck.

A stop valve adaptor to make a stop valve having a threaded stem actuatable through a stop valve box using a stop valve key. The stop valve adaptor is affixed to the threaded stop valve stem using a nut. The stop valve box is preferably made of a polymeric material and is maintained at a predetermined length by using friction due to O-rings, a glue joint, or clamping to dispose a stop valve box cover at the ground surface.

A method and apparatus for installing or uninstalling supply lines or retaining nuts. A wrench includes a body having first and second sections rotatably coupled to each other. The body includes a first portion having a plurality of castellations, wherein a plurality of radial slots are formed between lateral surfaces of adjacent castellations, each radial slot being engageable to a wing of a retaining nut, wherein the first portion includes a plurality of first inner surfaces engageable to a first pipe fitting in the closed position. The body includes a second portion spaced away from the first portion, the second portion including a hinge for rotating the first and second sections relative to each other. The body includes a third portion located between the first and second portions, the third portion including a plurality of second inner surfaces engageable to a second pipe fitting in the closed position.

A tool for use with a glad-hand connector; the tool includes a tool-body having a handle-end and a socket-end. The glad-hand connector includes a glad-hand body having a seal-side and a rear-side, and the socket-end includes an arcuate wall configured to encompass and conform to the rear-side of the glad-hand body. The tool is useful for facilitating coupling of glad hand connectors.

A tube clamp socket, including a socket body, including a cylindrical surface, a first slot disposed on at least a portion of the cylindrical surface to receive a first portion of at least one fastener therein, a second slot disposed on at least a portion of the cylindrical surface to receive a second portion of the at least one fastener therein, and a fastener receiving aperture may be disposed within at least a portion of an interior of the cylindrical surface to receive a center portion of the at least one fastener therein, and an attachment body removably connected to the cylindrical surface to contact the first portion and the second portion of the at least one fastener to prevent the first portion and the second portion of the at least one fastener from moving away from the first slot and the second slot.

The telescopic crank handle drill bit attachment comprises a hook, an extendable rod, and a drill attachment. The telescopic crank handle drill bit attachment may couple to a crank coupler of an overhead retractable device. The telescopic crank handle drill bit attachment may rotate the crank coupler when the telescopic crank handle drill bit attachment is turned using a rotary tool. As non-limiting examples, the overhead retractable device may be an awning, a window blind, or a skylight. The telescopic crank handle drill bit attachment may rotate the crank coupler in a first rotational direction to move the overhead retractable device in a first operational direction. The telescopic crank handle drill bit attachment may rotate the crank coupler in a second rotational direction to move the overhead retractable device in a second operational direction.
