The Channellock 440X SPEEDGRIP Tongue & Groove Plier brings one-hand jaw adjustment to the 12-inch frame plumbers know as the 440. Squeeze the spring-loaded button on the back of the head, slide the jaws to the size you need, and release to lock the position without ever putting the plier down. The 2.25-inch jaw capacity covers everything from 1-inch supply nuts to 2.5-inch traps and couplings.
Use it for plumbing rough-in, drain trap repairs, gripping large round stock, holding pipe steady on a vise, and any plumbing or mechanical job where you need to reset jaw size repeatedly without breaking workflow. The laser-heat-treated teeth bite into nuts that have rounded over a wrench, and the undercut tongue and groove prevents the slip-out the cheaper imitations are notorious for.
Channellock has been making pliers in Meadville, Pennsylvania since 1886 and the company still forges every plier in the same American factory under five generations of family ownership. The 440X carries Channellock’s full lifetime warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
