A screwdriver includes a shank, a ratchet assembly, and a handle. The shank includes a shank extender that in an extended position lengthens the shank and in a retracted position is stored within the handle of the screwdriver. The ratchet assembly includes a knob and is configured to drive in the same direction the knob is turned. The screwdriver includes a locking mechanism to prevent unwanted movement of the shank between the extended and retracted positions. The handle of the screwdriver includes a storage space to hold alternative screwdriver bits and a stabilizing component to decrease movement of the handle when the storage portion is in an extended or open position. In a closed position the handle surrounds the alternate bits and in an open position the alternate bits are exposed.

A hand tool includes a first jaw, a first handle fixed to the first jaw, a second jaw, and a second handle pivotally coupled to the second jaw, a link member, and an adjustment member. The adjustment member is operable to axially move a first end of the link member to vary a distance between the first and second jaws. The adjustment member includes an engagement surface engageable with the first end of the link member, a shank in threaded engagement with a bore in the first handle, and a flange extending from the shank opposite the engagement portion. The flange includes a first side, a second side opposite the first side, and an elongate opening extending through the first and second sides.

Locking pliers with improved adjustment member

A cutter including a cutting head and an adjustable handle pivotally coupled to the cutting head. The adjustable handle includes a first adjustment assembly to change a length the adjustable handle extends from the cutting head. The adjustable handle also includes a second adjustment assembly to change the position of the adjustable handle with respect to the cutting head.

Bolt cutter

A wrench includes a body having a head and a handle portion defining a longitudinal axis. The wrench includes a first jaw coupled to the head with the first jaw including first teeth and an edge. The edge defines a width of the first jaw. The wrench includes a second jaw extending through an aperture of the head with the second jaw including a threaded portion and second teeth. The wrench includes an actuator coupled to the threaded portion of the second jaw such that rotation of the actuator relative to the second jaw moves the second teeth relative to the first teeth. A length is measured from the edge of the first jaw to the second end of the handle portion parallel to the longitudinal axis. A ratio of the width of the first jaw over the length is less than 0.06.

Pipe wrench

A pipe wrench includes a head having a first aperture defining a central axis. The pipe wrench includes a first jaw coupled to the head having a plurality of teeth defining a first contact region, and a second jaw partially extending through the aperture of the head having a threaded portion and a plurality of teeth defining a second contact region. The second contact region extends beyond the first contact region in a direction parallel to side surfaces of the head. The pipe wrench includes a biasing mechanism located within the first aperture to align the threaded portion of the second jaw with the central axis of the first aperture, and an actuator having threads engaged with the threaded portion of the second jaw such that rotation of the actuator moves the second contact region of the second jaw relative to the first contact region of the first jaw.

Packaging for a pipe wrench

A tape measure including a housing arranged to enclose an internal cavity, where the housing defines a front wall. A port is formed in the housing and spaced a non-zero distance from the front wall. A measuring tape is at least partially disposed within the internal cavity of the housing and extends through the port. The measuring tape is rotatably coupled to the housing. A finger guard assembly is positioned adjacent the front wall, such that the finger guard assembly cooperates with the port to define a space therebetween. The measuring tape passes through the space outside of the housing to facilitate the control of the retraction and extension of the measuring tape through contact within the space.

Tape measure

A tape measure includes a housing arranged to substantially enclose an internal cavity, the housing defining a tape port, and a tape positioned partially within the housing, the tape including an end portion that extends through the tape port and out of the housing. A hook is coupled to the end portion and a finger guard assembly is coupled to the housing and spaced apart from the tape port. The end portion extends through an aperture in the finger guard assembly and is movable between a retracted position in which the hook abuts the finger guard assembly and an extended position in which the hook is spaced apart from the finger guard assembly.

A nutdriver that includes a socket configured to receive and engage a hex nut to rotate the hex nut relative to a threaded rod. The socket includes a socket opening. The nutdriver further includes a shank including a first end, a second end, and a shank aperture that extends through the first end and the second end of the shank. The nutdriver further includes a handle including a front end, a back end, and a handle aperture that extends through the front end and the back end of the handle, and the second end of the shank is coupled to the handle for co-rotation. The socket opening, the shank aperture, and the handle aperture are aligned and in communication to allow the threaded rod to extend through the socket opening, the shank aperture, the handle aperture, and beyond the back end of the handle while the socket rotates the hex nut.
