The Valve Wrench Handle is a tool designed to simplify the manipulation of water valves, particularly in residential plumbing systems. Traditional water valves, often located deep within walls or recessed in inspection boxes, can be challenging to access and operate, especially if rarely used and prone to sticking. This tool eliminates these issues by providing a robust and ergonomic solution for turning water valves, regardless of their placement or condition.

Key features:

  1. Compatibility: Suitable for valves measuring 58mm/25mm. Available in two versions: one for standard valves and another with an asymmetrical grip.
  2. Ergonomic Design: Wide handle options of 100mm or 120mm, paired with a 68mm outer diameter, ensure comfortable and secure grip even in constrained spaces.
  3. Durability: The tool is robust enough to withstand significant torque, making it ideal for stubborn or infrequently used valves.
  4. Convenience: Its compact yet functional design allows it to fit easily into inspection boxes or deep wall placements without compromising accessibility.

By using this tool, users can effortlessly shut off or turn on the main water supply without struggling in confined spaces. It’s a must-have for homeowners and professionals looking to maintain plumbing systems efficiently.

Printing Parameters:

  • Recommended Wall Layers: Minimum 4 layers for optimal strength.
  • Supports: Not required.
  • Layer Height: 0.1–0.2mm, based on desired surface finish.
  • Infill: 20–30% (suggested for durability).
  • Material: PLA or PETG for standard use; ABS for high-durability requirements.
