| Description: |  | "The invention has for its object the production of a durable, strong, simple and efficient chain wrench of great power, and one by which a pipe may be handled without the free end of the chain becoming accidentally loosened from the head of the wrench." -- from the description. 
The head and chain match illustrations of the Trimo Giant Pipe Wrench as shown in late 19th and early 20th Century catalog listings; the Trimo Bulldog chain wrench used the same mode for attaching the chain to the handle. |  |
