Questions & Answers

What exactly is the distinction between the two part numbers?

82220 has a width of 18 inches and a length of 29 inches. 82248 has a width of 29 inches and a length of 48 inches.

Would this be a good shtf tool to have in your gear bag? Is dynamic entry useful on solid core and hollow interior home doors, or is there a better pry?

The bar is very useful to me, but I only use it to position equipment and test bearings. I imagine it would be extremely beneficial for solid core steal doors. If you're going to use it for carpentry, you might want to go down a size.

Is the warranty handled by Amazon or by Gearwrench?

Gearwrench is the way to go. You can take it to anyone who sells it (for example, Northern Tool), and they will give you a warranty. If you want to, you can send it in yourself, but I've never done so.

Selected User Reviews For GEARWRENCH 33" Extendable Indexing Pry Bar - 82220

This is a must-have for anyone who works above the salt belt or on heavy equipment

5/5

I have a few other sizes of indexing pry bars that are "made by Mac," but I've been meaning to get the 48"-long one. I've been waiting for this for a long time and can't believe I've been waiting so long. If you work on diesel engines of any size or rusty cars in the rust belt, this is a MUST HAVE! br>br>Oh, and I guess I hit the jackpot because I ordered a used one for $55 and received a brand new one with free one-day shipping.

THIS PRY BAR IS AN EXTREMELY EXTREMELY EXTREMELY EXTREMELY E Extending tools has always been a source of concern for me

5/5

Your days of extending will be over with just one bend or tweak. I have three indexing pry bars, one of which is a 33" ratcheting pry bar. I had a problem with one of the 33" pry bars, so I sent it in for warranty service. They returned with a 48-inch extending pry bar. This is something I've been doing for over a year. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DELICIOUS UNIT! I work as a diesel mechanic on the road. Every day, this pry bar is put to use. With the tool fully extended, I was able to get some good 'flex' in the handle. I was probably on the verge of bending it and putting an arc on it when I decided to stop. Anything has the potential to be shattered or bent. If given the chance, brute force and ignorance will triumph. An indexing head, as well as an extendable handle! I was able to position the indexing head precisely where it needed to be, then extend the handle between the truck's frame and an axle to complete the task. SOLID CONSTRUCTION FROM THE BEGINNING TO THE END, AS WELL AS INNOVATIVE DESIGN! Hands down, my favorite pry bar (and I have a lot of them).

This is an excellent tool

5/5

This device is incredible. It can reach incredible heights and can be adjusted to pry in tight spaces where a regular pry bar would be useless. During the unboxing of this tool, I was teased by my family because everyone assumed the indexing mechanism would fail under load. It has, however, repeatedly demonstrated its worth. We jumped up and down on it while it was fully extended with no problems with the indexing mechanism. When an extreme load is applied to the extension mechanism, it flexes slightly, but not to the point of failure. This is a must-have item that is well worth the investment. You can't imagine how useful it will be until you have it with you on the job. It's built to last.

a fantastic deal Great pry bar, it's the smaller of the two, but don't let the size fool you, it's extremely strong and doesn't bend at all, I used it every day as an auto tech and it's the perfect size, a fellow tech here has the bigger one and he has to borrow mine because it's more manageable in areas with limited space, yet I have yet to find something that his can pry that I can't

5/5

br>br>also a very good buy.

The concept is fantastic, but the execution is a disaster

3/5

Skid steers and mini excavators benefit greatly from having their tracks replaced. Definitely a good tool.
EDIT: I'M STILL SATISFIED WITH IT, BUT WHATEVER COATING THEY APPLIED WAS GARBAGE. CLICK ON THE IMAGES TO ENLARGE. STORED IN MY FLAT BED ONE WEEK AFTER LIGHT USEbr>Get it together GearWrench.

In the truck, my favorite tool

5/5

I work as a hydraulic field technician in the oil and gas industry. This bar is extremely adaptable and durable. When you need more length, the extension is ideal, and the indexing head allows you to get leverage at angles that would be impossible with straight heads. It's also built to last. This bar is ideal for prying with tools, gaining more leverage, and realigning parts. It also comes with a lifetime warranty because it's a Gearwrench product. On a different note, the only other place I've seen this bar is on the Matco truck for $200.

I use and abuse this thing on heavy equipment nearly every day, and it's almost perfect

4/5

Stay off the tool truck and buy it here, it's well worth the money. br>br>With one factory addition, this tool would be perfect: threads on the bottom of the handle and a strike plate. Mine is great for tapping and pushing pins out of bores in equipment. I realize it wasn't designed for this, but it'd be a fantastic addition. We unthread and replace the strike plate (which is similar to what is on the cap/end of pry bars) when it wears out.

In a good way, this is a beastly tool

5/5

So far, I haven't put this telescoping / adjustable hook pry bar to the test or attempted to break it, and I don't see the need to. Is it as tough as a heavy-duty solid steel pry bar? I'm guessing it's not. The trade-off is its compactness and versatility. That it's still very strong, and I don't see myself "putting my back into it" and physically breaking this beast at this time; however, if I run into a job that requires that level of force and this baby is out of its weight class, I'll consider a larger bar and some younger help to assist me.
