Overview
The Bahco 142 is a large adjustable wrench measuring 14.5 inches in overall length and weighing about 1.09 kilograms, roughly 2.4 pounds. It carries a 4.6 star rating from 630 reviewers.
Bahco is a Swedish tool maker with a long history in adjustable wrenches, and the 142 sits at the large end of that range at 14.5 inches. A wrench this size is built for jobs that need real reach and leverage rather than pocket carry, such as large nuts, pipe fittings or fasteners a standard 8 or 10 inch wrench cannot grip.

Who it's for
Tradespeople and serious DIYers who regularly work on large fasteners, plumbing fittings or machinery where a standard sized wrench does not have enough jaw opening or leverage. It is not the wrench to carry in a small tool bag for light household repairs.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Strong leverage from 14.5 inch length
- 4.6 rating across 630 reviews
- Solid steel build from an established maker
- Too large and heavy for everyday carry
- No separate jaw capacity figure published
Performance notes
Length is the main lever here. At 14.5 inches, the 142 gives significantly more torque on a stuck or oversized fastener than a standard 8 to 10 inch adjustable wrench, at the cost of extra weight and bulk to carry. The 1.09 kilogram weight reflects the solid steel build typical of Bahco's adjustable line.
