Keyfit Tools Sprinkler Head Wrench The Fastest Most Versatile Way Remove Replace Adjustment Heads With No Digging Mess Works On All Brands of Spray Rotor Jar Top Valves

I bought these so that I wouldn't have to cut back the sod as much around my Toro 300 rotor heads when clamping the base tube. Using Channellocks required a huge grass dig to be able to clamp the base. Keyfit advertises no digging required. Maybe that is true for other brands of sprinkler heads, but the Toro 300s require at least some digging of the surrounding grass and dirt to get to the base tube. This is especially true if the heads have sunk over time (+30 years) with thatch and root build up.The one bad thing about these is the jaws do not open as wide as Channellocks so the handles are quite far apart when clamped to my base tubes. So far that I couldn't the rubber tightener to work properly. In this situation, you really need a second pair of strong hands to hold the clamp on the base tube while you use Channellocks to unscrew the Toro 300 guts. I deducted one star for this problem.The Keyfit.com web site has been hacked. Norton 360 reports Web Attack: Rig Exploit Kit Redirection 13 when accessing it.Because they are American made I added back one star. I really like this product and I think it has a clever idea. I realize that they are a bit pricey as a tool, but that is because of their American origin. Buy American made products, not Chinese.

I have a 14 zone system which covers over an acre with approximately 65 heads. Every year it seems I need to replace a number (I use Rainbird and Hunter 4 inch popups). Some of these heads were installed when the overall system was installed in 2000 (including some Weathermatic Heads). They just wear out.I was having difficulty removing a couple of these 21 year old Weathermatic heads, and needed a tool to grab the body of the sprinkler so I could replace it with a Rainbird 5500. My gas pliers which I generally use were not big enough to accommodate the Weathermatics (which are bigger), so I needed either to buy larger gas pliers or do something else.I saw this tool on Amazon, and it seemed to fit the bill (despite the high cost). I can report after a moning of uninstalling Weathermatics and installing Rainbirds that this tool is the real deal. It is very sturdy and makes replacing heads a snap. It also makes installing nozzles very easy.

Works as advertised...EXCEPT it does not hold a Half inch riser in the "UP" position. It will hold the larger risers though, as long as the rubber strap is intact.We have about 60 sprinkler heads that need to be raised two inches. This wrench, although a bit pricey, saves a LOT of time spent chasing your tail in the process of removing the head make the change to a taller riser.Keyfit Tools Sprinkler Head Wrench The Fastest Most Versatile Tool To Remove Replace & Adjust Spri

Works perfectly and saves a ton of time

I am really glad I found this, because it's helped me do the work needed to raise my sprinkler heads without a ton of digging. It's far from perfect for the high price, though, and as many have mentioned the two halves can bend easily and get out of alignment even with careful use. I suppose this is better than a bunch of cracked sprinklers, but it seems cheaply made for the price. It's definitely saved me from some bad situations and the digging around the heads was minimal compared to other years when I did not have this tool. I recommend it for anyone who is going to do their own sprinkler work, but keep your quality expectations reasonable.

I work on my own sprinkler system and this tool make it so much easier to replace the sprinkler heads.

It’s well built and a time saver, and needless to mention there’s less mess around your sprinkler

Concept is great. The offset tool makes it a lot easier to grab a sprinkler body and turn it. The sturdiness of the tool is poor IMO. It wiggles and I’m anxious it will break soon. I still didn’t figure out how to use the extraction teeth when a stinker body is open. They teeth seem to fit bigger bodies only.Overall good but overpriced.
