A wrench includes a head having a first end and a second end and a handle extending from the head. The head defines and at least partially surrounds an opening. The head further defines at least one recess continuous with the opening. A distance between the first end and the second end of the head is greater than a cross-sectional diameter of a pipe flange of a hammer union.

A jackstand adapter tool attaches onto a square-drive power driver, so that the tool and driver can be used in the field for winding and unwinding the threaded rod of a jackstand. The tool engages the radial lift handles that protrude from the top part of threaded rod. The adapter may be a generally cylindrical member that fits over the top end of the rod (with its top plate removed) with opposed recesses at a lower edge to engage the lift handles.

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 shutter adjustment device for utilizing a tool such as a drill to easily and effortlessly raise or lower storm shutters. The shutter adjustment device generally includes a housing adapted to be connected between a drill and a shutter lever of a storm shutter. The housing may be connected to a drill such that the housing rotates when the drill is activated. The shutter lever may be removably engaged within a clamp assembly of the housing such that the shutter lever may be easily rotated by activating the drill. In this manner, the shutter may be easily raised or lowered with little effort using the drill.

A grease fitting installation tool is disclosed. The grease fitting installation tool may include a hand tool useful for installing and uninstalling a grease fitting with a hexagonal collar, a threaded shank, and a nipple, i.e., a Zerk fitting. The hand tool may have a first tool head and a second tool head, each able to receive and manipulate a grease fitting. The first and second tool heads may be attached end to end, joining the heads in the center of a hand tool by a couple. The couple may have a wrench interface allowing the hand tool to be engaged by a wrench or other tool. Each tool head may include a hollow socket with a socket aperture and six internal contact surfaces that are hexagonally arranged. The tool head may also include a deformable, cylindrical gripping member disposed within the hollow socket for retaining the grease fitting when the grease fitting is inserted into the gripping member.

A driver extension with hand knobs is shown and described. The driver extension with hand knobs includes an elongated rod. The elongated rod has a first end opposite a second end. The first end of the elongated rod is a tool attachment end. The second end of the elongated rod is a securement end for a socket or a screwdriver. A pair of opposing hand knobs are secured along the elongated rod extending away from the elongated rod. The knobs are positioned in the same plane.

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 multi-purpose hand tool system is described. The tool system includes a handle and one or more inserts that are releasably engaged with the handle. The tool system is useful for a variety of applications including use with basin and faucet hardware.

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.

The disclosed invention is a three part assembly comprising a driving member connected to an irregular shape, which is connected to a threaded shaft. The driving member is configured to rotate the irregular shaped device by use of a driving tool, such as a drill or a screwdriver.

The driving tool may be manual, or power driven. To install the assembly into an object, the assembly is rotated about the threaded shaft and the threads screws into the object.

The irregular shape is preferably designed to attach or connect an item to the object. In a preferred embodiment, the shape is a round hook, the object is a ceiling, and the item is a decorative plant. The three part assembly then provides a convenient method to connect a plant to a ceiling.
