The Milwaukee 48-22-7002 is a 2.5" basin wrench engineered for professional-grade use in confined plumbing environments. It features a telescoping handle and ratcheting head that facilitate secure access to faucet nuts and supply line fittings beneath sinks and lavatories, where space is limited and traditional tools are ineffective.
The wrench is built with a forged steel jaw for strength and long-term durability. The ratcheting mechanism enables directional adjustments without repositioning the tool, improving torque application and efficiency in overhead and obstructed work areas. A spring-loaded jaw maintains consistent engagement with the fastener during use.
