Wow, thank you sooo very much!! I am a 71 year old woman and never done any kind of plumbing repairs in my life. Showing just how to use this tool saved my life. You are the greatest THANK YOU!
You are welcome, Mary. It's my pleasure to help. There are many other home repair videos on the channel.... just click on the channel name to see them.
LOL I bought one of those basin wrenches. Try actually getting underneath a sink to use it on a 2" nut. I can't get the wrench to grip. Plus with all the hoses in the way, you can't get a clear view, let alone space to maneuver a telescopic basin wrench. Who the hell designed the means of installing hoses and pipes underneath sinks? Everything is cluttered. There should be a rule to allow space to work.
I was having trouble figuring out how to bend the basin wrench. When you said it was difficult to bend I was able to position it correctly. Thank you. Most people on youtube seem to assume that you know that it is difficult.
Super helpful and nicely presented. Please keep making more of these videos. I'm in the middle of a total gut job of a 5 bedroom 3 1/2 bath that I am doing by myself because the "man" that was supposed to partner on this with me scammed me bad. I put my big girl pants on and have a great sense of accomplishment every time I complete a project. My sister and I just finished cutting and putting in the granite countertops last week. Videos like these are the things that keep me going. Thank you thank you thank you.
Thank you so much! I had to use the sandpaper trick, but it worked a treat! I'm so relieved to find a straightforward, simple explanation that didn't take an hour to get to!
You are welcome. You can be assured that Know How Now videos don't waste your time. I keep them as short as possible but full of content... sadly that format does not always get to the top of the search page.

My sink and husband should thank you, too! Your video just saved the day! I cannot tell you how frustrated I was! Too much to type and "thank you " is sent SINCERELY! Now onto the new install!
You are welcome. My goal is to make videos with accurate information and keep them as brief as possible. Please click on the channel name and check out the rest of the videos.
Plumbing store said to use Channel lock pliers. Both of your solutions were so much more elegant and easy. Unfortunately the basin wrench worked too well and I didn’t get a chance to try the PVC homemade wrench trick. Perfect video for what I needed.
Thank you so much for posting this video. It helped me figure out how to use the tool that I need to use to install a new sink myself rather than having to rely on someone else to do it for me so thank you!
You are welcome, Anita. Thanks for watching the video and for taking the time to comment. There are now over 200 how to/repair videos, organized by playlist on the channel. If you find a few spare moments, check out the channel.
Thank you. This was a great assist for me. I have a very old sink where I replace the faucet about seven years ago, that was a very long job. This makes it very easy to replace the new faucet.
Thank you for this very informative video. It helped immensely. And, thank you for empowering me to think outside the box. I had to take the counter off the cabinet, but I got that faucet off. 😊
Thanks for the compliment and subscribing. Welcome to Know How Now. I put a lot of effort into the videos. The newer ones are a little better. I'm always trying to improve the quality.
I bought a cheap basin wrench and it never worked properly. Maybe now having watched this I'll give it another try someday. Thanks for sharing this video. 👍
Was getting ready to spend $70 on a service call because I couldn’t get the center faucet bolt loose But then I watched your video and you mentioned using a crescent wrench for added leverage on the base of it to turn it. Well after 70 tries of using the lever I couldn’t get it - but tightened up my crescent wrench for added leverage and she turned like butter. Thank you / thank you / thank you / thank you. I got it. With your help - your guidance that is. And you saved me $70. I certainly owe you one. One thing I might also mention is most basin wrenches are for an inch bolt or less - viewers might need an inch and a half basin wrench mine was $14 for the Home Depot Husky brand which is cheaper than the $20 one at Lowe’s. Can’t tell you how many kitchen faucet videos I watched that omitted your instruction. An answer to prayer - indeed - thanks again.
You are welcome, David. It always makes my day to hear that the video has been helpful. Nothing owed, just do something nice for someone..... make the world a better place. Thanks for the mention of the basin wrench size. I'll copy and paste it in a new comment box.
I had to tear the vanity out to get to a leaking lead drain pipe. Apparently 70 years ago when the house was built a nail was driven into that pipe. I thought it was a good opportunity to had a good view on how to use a basin wrench. It's almost impossible to get a good camera angle/light when the sink is installed.
Thanks so much!! You answered All of the questions that I didn't even know I needed to ask. And the New Kitchen Faucet looks Great ( thanks to You, I was able to get the Old one off and I have a Handy Dandy New Tool) ,👍😁
Helpful tip from David Azinger: One thing I might also mention is most basin wrenches are for an inch bolt or less - viewers might need an inch and a half basin wrench mine was $14 for the Home Depot Husky brand which is cheaper than the $20 one at Lowe’s.
Hey, my basin wrench came with a pin like thing. ______________________________ Nevermind, I'm a bit of an idiot. Wasn't putting enough pressure on it. I'm assuming the pin is important.
Thank you very much for this video! I have one of these in a multi-tool plumbers kit that I bought and had no idea what it was lol. Turns out, I could have used it working on my faucet instead of taking out my garbage disposal and crawling up in the cabinet with adjustable wrenches!
Thanks for a helpful little video. Some good tips too. I must say that I never thought I'd see a 'Wench' describing how to use a 'Wrench'!! Yes, I'm an old bloke and 'the times they are a' changin', as old Bob used to sing. :) :) Thank you, NoAxe
Thanks for the compliment, William. I am always trying to improve the quality of the videos. There are now over 200 how to/repair videos, organized by playlist, on the channel. If you find yourself with some free time check out the channel.
Thanks for the info. My faucet handle got crooked after I replaced the cartridge but I can't turn the nut to straighten it out. I'll pick up one of these and see if I can loosen it with it.
Your explanation was helpful, but what’s the point on standing right next to whatever you are trying to loosen up? I would want to see how the tool works whenever a person is trying to undo a basin or sink that’s in place.
I am sorry you don't like how I filmed the video. You might try looking for another video for help or try fitting under a sink with a light, camera wrench and try to film your own. I think you will discover that no one will be able to see how to use the wrench. It will be fun to make your first video for youtube too!
So basically these things are useless. Thanks for the informative video but I just bought a brand new one and I can't even loosen a loose nut with it because the spring action is incredibly weak
Thanks so much for this post~first time using/or ever knowing about this tool, and what a blessing it is! We have a very awkward space in which to maneuver to begin with~roughly, about 12 sq inches~ and way in the deep , far back of this tiny space under a very old bathroom sink. ok, now I'm just whining =) Thanks again~new (and grateful!)sub

The instructions on the back of the Husky Tools basin wrench package seem to show the product used the opposite way to that shown here. The instructions show the end flipped to the left, and the leading edge when turning as the end of the curved piece, not the flat piece leading the turn. Cannot get the nut off either way, unfortunately. Can anyone enlighten me? Thanks in advance.
The video has over a half a million views, with thumbs up at 97.4%, no one has contested the instructions in this video. I only delete a comment if the person is cursing, which is just about never. Spray the connection with PB Blaster, have a coffee and try again. If that doesn't work, tap on connection, spray on some more PB Blaster and try tomorrow.
Try some Loctite thread locker. Get the kind that breaks loose with tools. Blue is for metal... I don't know if they make something for plastics. www.loctiteproducts.com/en/products/specialty-products/specialty/loctite_threadlockerblue242.html
Good video, but the bit about how, "in the real world" having to remove the basin from the vanity (or huge cast iron kitchen sink from the counter!) and possibly having to cut off the old hex nuts was pretty discouraging. We'll see. Hopefully a liberal dose of WD-40 will do the trick.... Good to know such tools aren't expensive.
There are some great penetrating oils out there that will make the job easier. This guy did and excellent video on the topic: th-cam.com/video/xUEob2oAKVs/w-d-xo.html
Are you still monitoring this? I have the tool. I tried it both ways to see if I could get it to grip. I cannot get it to hold the nut to even apply any torque to it. Upside down under the sink with the base edge of sink cabinetry in my back and zero elbow room makes getting any kind of hold on it seem impossible.
You can try making your own wrench, I have a video that shows how to do it. Also, spray that nut with penetrating oil that will help if it is stuck. WD40 is not penetrating oil. Link to video: th-cam.com/video/gtqB3V8mfeU/w-d-xo.html
For a female voice to make this explanation of how to use this tool, was well presented and illustrated. I don't know why most female women feel that this is something that only men could do. It's no wonder why there is so much inequality in the pay gap. My view.... from London(UK)
That's why women want equal pay.... Because they reckon they're as good as men, and possibly can sound like them, when they want. But it was obvious to hear.
You are welcome, Matthew. Thanks for taking the time to comment with some kind words. Please consider supporting the channel and subscribe, it's free and it will allow me to continue to add more videos.
I used to be a maintenance man at an apartment complex and with all of the faucets I have changed I have never ever needed one of these. A pair of channel lock pliers will do you just fine... lol. Though this would be a bit more convenient.
Try spraying some PB Blaster Penetrating oil (the big box hardware stores sell it.) where the threads meet the nut. Wait a few hours & try again. The PB Blaster has a horrible odor, but it works great.
The grey nut that you tightened down ... mine broke, so I need to replace it. What is the name of that part? I'm hoping to buy just that specific part?
It's likely called a lock nut. I'd suggest taking the broken one to a plumbing supply house. They might be able to find the correct replacement. The brand of the fixture would also be helpful.
Worst case if you cant get the water line removed using that wrench, instead of removing the sink you can try cutting the line off and then just using a socket, and replacing the water line.

How many basin wrench videos I searched and watched. Yours is the only sensible one I saw out of the bunch!
Thank you very much!
Liked 👍
You are welcome, it's my pleasure to help.
I was having trouble figuring out how to bend the basin wrench. When you said it was difficult to bend I was able to position it correctly. Thank you. Most people on youtube seem to assume that you know that it is difficult.
You are welcome. I try to cover all of the details, but still keep the videos as short as possible.
The best advice out of all. I was more interested on how to loosen the bolt that holds the faucet not so much the water supply lines thank you...!
Super helpful and nicely presented. Please keep making more of these videos.

Try spraying a penetrating oil before taking whole sink out is my strong recommendation
Thanks for the video !
You are welcome!
Yes
We keep having to tighten the nut for our faucet with this type of wrench. Do you think a washer might help keep the faucet from coming loose?
Try some Loctite thread locker. Get the kind that breaks loose with tools. Blue is for metal... I don't know if they make something for plastics. www.loctiteproducts.com/en/products/specialty-products/specialty/loctite_threadlockerblue242.html

I used to be a maintenance man at an apartment complex and with all of the faucets I have changed I have never ever needed one of these. A pair of channel lock pliers will do you just fine... lol. Though this would be a bit more convenient.
If you have an upscale pedestal sink, there's not enough room to maneuver a normal wrench.
My box for my new faucet said I needed a pair of basin wrench (which I never used before). After watching this video my thought are exactly like yours
Thanks for this, currently at war against the nuts on my bath taps, they're wining so far. Hopefully this works when it comes tomorrow :|
If you haven't already tried it, spray some penetrating oil on them and go have a coffee. Then try again and you may win the war. Best wishes.
I cannot get the top of the basin wrench to flip over help!
Prefect! Thx!
You are welcome, Craig!
Thank you!
You are welcome, Ted!
the nut I have is old with square edges and won't budge...even with this tool
Try spraying some PB Blaster Penetrating oil (the big box hardware stores sell it.) where the threads meet the nut. Wait a few hours & try again. The PB Blaster has a horrible odor, but it works great.
The grey nut that you tightened down ... mine broke, so I need to replace it. What is the name of that part? I'm hoping to buy just that specific part?
It's likely called a lock nut. I'd suggest taking the broken one to a plumbing supply house. They might be able to find the correct replacement. The brand of the fixture would also be helpful.

Just got new sink installed and 1 year later faucet is coming loose. This video tells me how to reach up there to tighten the nut.
Thanks for taking the time to comment. I like to hear from people who watch the videos. Have a great day.
Worst case if you cant get the water line removed using that wrench, instead of removing the sink you can try cutting the line off and then just using a socket, and replacing the water line.
That's a great idea. Thanks for sharing.
well said thank u
