General Tools & Instruments Company, LLC, a major supplier of specialty tools for the Plumbing, HVAC, and Hardware tools markets, announces the release of its new ratchet action pipe wrench. This new wrench, brand named �Hawk� for its talon style pipe grip, enables one-handed operation for fitting, adjusting, ratcheting, torquing and removal.

The �Hawk� features a spring-loaded jaw allowing fast ratchet action and self adjustment to different pipe sizes. The jaw itself is a patented 3-point design which provides an extra strong grip for increased torque and the convenient thumb handle allows for quick disengagement. The handle is also designed with a molded-in valve shut-off key wrench.

�We are excited about the expansion of the General Tools product line,� said Joe Ennis, President and CEO of General. �With our new product developments and our recent corporate acquisitions General renews its commitment of providing new and unique product offerings on a continual basis.�
