Patent

CA 2302112

The invention provides for a tool for removing or tightening thread protectors that are installed on lengths of pipe having threaded ends. The invention is designed to be effective with both current and future forms of thread protectors used in the piping industry. In accordance with this invention there is provided a tool comprising a disc-shaped housing that defines an internal chamber containing a rotably mounted drive member which in turn has an associated means of applying rotational force to it. The invention further comprises at least two thread protector-gripping members which engage the drive member and each of which has an interchangeable retractable and extended position. Rotational movement causes the thread protector gripping members to move to their extended position and engage the thread protector, thus allowing the operator to grip the thread protector with the tool and safely remove it from the pipe.
