<p>A handle for a strap wrench or other tool is assembled from two components (1, 2), which components are provided with cooperating elements whereby the two components may be releasably joined together. Preferably, each component is provided with at least one projection (4) adapted to be received within a recess (5) in the other component. A strap wrench comprises such a handle together with a strap (3), one end of the strap being attached, e.g. by a pin (15), to one component (1), the second component (2) of the handle being associated with the strap (3) by means of a guide member (18) through which the strap may pass, thereby permitting variation in the size of the loop (16) formed by the strap for engagement with a workpiece. The means for releasably joining together the components of the handle permit the use of the strap wrench on objects, such as a length of pipe, having inaccessible ends. </p> |
