Pipe Capacity and Material Compatibility
From small 1/8" pipe to heavy 2-1/2" lines, the 425 holds steel, copper, and PVC securely without damaging the surface. The chain wraps around the pipe and locks with the quick-grab latch, so you can apply force without worrying about slipping.
Portable Design That Works as Hard as You Do
The integral legs and tray fold flat for storage; the built-in handle makes it a true tripod you can lift with one hand. The stand's base overhangs the front legs to keep your threading die clear—no more skinned knuckles in tight spaces.
