The utility model discloses a pipe wrench. This pipe wrench includes: the first pincers body has the first terminal surface that can contact with the lateral wall of tubular column, the second pincers body has the second terminal surface that can contact with the lateral wall of tubular column, and first terminal surface is relative with the second terminal surface, and the second pincers physical stamina pincers first relatively body removes, and then adjusts the clearance between first terminal surface and the second terminal surface, ratchet assembly sets up on the first pincers body, the handle is connected with ratchet assembly unidirectional rotating, a contained angle has between the length direction of handle and the vertical plane of first terminal surface and/or second terminal surface. When position near apart from ground when the upper end of tubular column or pipe wrench chucking tubular column was near apart from ground, the handle of the last setting of pipe wrench had a contained angle for the handle can be followed the position slant of chucking and extended, thereby operating personnel just can operate pipe wrench by the gripping handle under the condition of standing, improved the convenience that pipe wrench used greatly.
