Parmelee 74136 G4 4-7/16″ OD Girth for H4 Handle, Extra Heavy Gauge Pipe Wrench

What is the Parmelee 74136?

The Parmelee 74136 (G4 4-7/16) is a G4 girth for pipe, tubing or rod with a 4-7/16″ outside diameter (OD). The girth is the 3-piece head of the Parmelee pipe wrench that grips the pipe, tube or rod 360 degrees around its outside diameter. It mounts on the H4 extra heavy gauge handle (Parmelee 71004), sold separately.

The Parmelee wrench (sometimes spelled Parmalee), also called pipe tongs or a friction wrench, has no teeth: this girth closes around the work 360 degrees and does not mar polished pipe or piston rods.

The girth of the No. 4 wrench is cast high carbon alloy steel, toughened and hardened by heat treatment. Standard girths like this one have a polished finish.

Which pipe size does the Parmelee 74136 fit?

It fits 4-7/16″ OD only. Parmelee makes a separate girth for each diameter of pipe, tubing or rod, and a girth cannot be used on any other diameter. Measure the outside diameter before ordering; for pipe known by its nominal size, see the IPS girths.

In the G4 family Parmelee lists 24 standard OD sizes from 3-1/4″ to 6″, 4 IPS sizes from 3″ to 5″. Nearest listed OD sizes: 4-1/8″ (Parmelee 74131), 4-1/4″ (Parmelee 74130), 4-3/8″ (Parmelee 74134), 4-1/2″ (Parmelee 74128), 4-5/8″ (Parmelee 74135), 4-3/4″ (Parmelee 74133). Across the four wrench sizes, metric girths from 19 mm to 172 mm and other sizes are available on request, quoted separately.

What do you need for a complete Parmelee No. 4 wrench?

Besides this girth you need the H4 handle assembly (Parmelee 71004). Parmelee states that each wrench comes with a lock bolt (L4, 71008), adjusting nuts (N4, 71012) and a slip pin (P4, 71016), also sold as replacements. Girths and handles are sold separately; handle and girth can be shipped assembled on request, at an extra charge confirmed with the quote.
