All components of Armstrong Chain Tongs are chosen to provide a durable, long-lasting tool, strong beyond need, and with the professional appearance experienced users expect from their pipe tools. JAWS Drop forged from alloy steel, chain tong jaws are carefully milled and heat treated. They are tested for strength and wearability and finished in a bright red baked-on enamel. Pipe capacity, in both inches and millimeters, is forged into sides of each jaw. HANDLES Only selected alloy steel is used to provide the correct degree of stiffness without risking brittleness. After forging, handles are grit blasted and oil coated. CHAIN Flat link chains, the key to any top quality tong, are manufactured in our own plant. After careful heat treating, they are proof-tested under quality control. Each chain is shipped with a lead seal indicating it has been tested to 2/3 of its cataloged breaking strain. The favorite style for general, all-around use, these tongs feature an extra large hardened steel bolt. The connecting link is drop forged from alloy steel.
