  • This is a demonstration of the Ridgid EZ change faucet tool 56988. Throw out your basin wrench! This plumbing tool allows you to easily install or remove faucets with several size supply line nuts and plastic faucet nut styles. The faucet tool can also help you turn off stuck valves and stubborn faucet nuts. It also can be used to change sink strainers. It's an easy-to-use tool that makes life a lot easier when you can change faucets quickly and easily without having to use a PITA basin wrench.

    I agree, skip the spring loaded basin wrench. It's use is very limited.

    Just don’t go crazy using it for seized valves , you could even brake the pipe insides the wall , I never even use it for that , if they don’t turn by hand I always back wrench, but don’t really go all in. Better to replace the Damm thing or at least locate the house main shut off if you decide to put more strength on it

    Water wouldn’t drip on your face if you disconnected the 3/8” end first. Easier to connect to the sink if you did the faucet end first.

    • @toolsandrepairs
      @toolsandrepairs  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That's probably true. I disconnect the faucet end first to direct some of the water into a pan or cup. Either way there will be some water left in the supply line so a rag is always handy.

    I suggest spraying a little WD 40 up under your sink faucet before trying to remove faucet nuts

      As long as it's name brand, it's probably good. I wouldn't recommend the generic ones like the orange one in my video because the plastic is too flimsy

    The nuts to take off my old faucet are puttied into place. How should i take them off?

    • @toolsandrepairs
      @toolsandrepairs  11 วันที่ผ่านมา

      The putty is there to help stop leaks from under the faucet and though the plastic will stick to the putty it is not a glue. It will take some force but it should come off, probably by using a wrench on the tool as seen in the video.

    I probably would not want to use a screw driver or a wrench to torque that tool since it's plastic. that'll break in no time.

    • @toolsandrepairs
      @toolsandrepairs  22 วันที่ผ่านมา

      When I had to really torque the smaller orange one, I felt like I almost broke it as it started to twist. At least this Ridgid one is a much more substantial thicker plastic that could handle a lot more torque.

    After countless attempts of using this product, I would advise anyone to keep their money and buy a basin wrench, this is a real piece of junk. Very disappointed in Rigid, its a scam tool, doesn't work at all on kitchen faucet supply lines.

    • @toolsandrepairs
      @toolsandrepairs  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I used this on my kitchen faucet as well as bathroom faucet. You have to use the correct adapter for the connections. In my case it was 1/2" to 3/8" and installed easily. Plus, a basin wrench will not help remove stuck faucet nuts, which are sometimes not easy to remove by hand.

      I have a Husky HD Basin Wrench. It did not work on the Moen nut as the water supply lines do not allow the wrench to wrap the nut. Needed this Ridgid tool to get the job done.

      I’ve used the ridgid tool on many sinks and it works great I would say user error.
