Title: Merit pipe wrench
Post by: HeelSpur on February 02, 2015, 12:00:56 PM

Is this the same Merit that was affiliated with sears or a different Co.?
The wrench is a 14 incher.

No didn't see Walworth on it, I have several of those. (not Walworth merit)
I looked thru the Merit tools on AA but didn't see any pipe wrenches so I was wondering if it was another company or maybe AA just didn't list a pipe wrench.
