Description

USA Tools
Here is an Antique TRIMO 14" Pipe Wrench. Patent Dated 1889 and 1897. It was made by the Trimont Manufacturing Company of Roxbury Mass, USA.  It has several markings:
TRIMO-TRADE MARK DROP FORGED  14
TRIMONT MFG CO ROXBURY MASS U S A
TRADE TRIMO MARK 14"
- with TRIMO in larger font.
PAT D   1889    97
TRIMO
It is in fair condition. The best part is that it is well marked and very readable. But sadly the
handle is bent. And it appears to be missing a spring or other device to hold tension on the
movable jaw. There is a threaded hole under the movable jaw with nothing in it. The finish
is very dark with some surface rust. Here is a true antique with significant value to American
tool making history. If you make YouTube
videos, this wrench would make a great restoration video for YouTube. Please save
this tool!
