Description

The RIDGID 38540 Manual Pipe Threader (catalog number 38540) is a rugged ratcheting handle built for use with RIDGID 00-R and 00-RB threading systems. It's a favorite of plumbing, electrical, and mechanical professionals who need reliable manual threading in the field or in the shop. The 3-foot handle delivers ample leverage to reduce strain, and the easy-access ratchet knob lets you switch between forward and reverse instantly.

RIDGID 38540 Ratchet Handle: Built for Tough Threads

This ratchet handle is designed to accept RIDGID die heads, which snap in from either side and lock securely. That means faster size changes when you're working with multiple conduit or pipe sizes. The handle is constructed from hardened steel for long-term durability, and the comfortable grip helps keep you in control.

Manual Threading You Can Rely On

For threading in tight spaces or where power tools aren't practical, the RIDGID 38540 gives you the mechanical advantage you need. The ratcheting action lets you work in confined areas without swinging a full circle, and the forward/reverse knob allows you to back off quickly after a thread is cut.

A Legacy of Professional Quality

RIDGID tools are purpose-built for the evolving demands of commercial, industrial, and energy markets. This ratchet handle is a solid addition to any pipe threader kit, delivering the performance and reliability that professionals expect.

Product Details

Thread Pipe Manually with Confidence

The RIDGID 38540 is an essential tool for anyone who threads pipe manually. Whether you're adding a thread to a short nipple or working in a location where power tools can't go, this ratchet handle provides the grip and leverage you need.

Compatibility Matters

This handle is built specifically for the RIDGID 00-R and 00-RB system. Using it with other brands may not give you proper alignment or a secure fit. Stick with RIDGID die heads for the best results.

Larry B.

Classic tool

This ratchet handle is a classic. It fits my 00-R die head perfectly and makes threading 1/2 and 3/4 pipe a breeze. The 3-foot length gives plenty of leverage, and the quick reverse knob saves time. It's heavy and well made, like all RIDGID tools. I've used it on many jobs and it's still going strong.

Solid handle

It's a solid handle, but I wish the grip was a little more cushioned. Works great with the dies.

Great for husband

My husband does plumbing on the side, and this ratchet handle has made threading much easier for him. The reverse knob works smoothly, and the handle is long enough for good torque. He says it's on par with his older vintage RIDGID. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars is that the price seemed high. But it's built to last.
