Specialty plumbing tools and shop supplies that do not fall under a power tool category: basin wrenches, closet augers, test plugs and gauges, tubing cutters, flaring and swaging tools, deburring reamers, inspection mirrors, thread files and marking tools.
Most of what is here exists because a general-purpose tool cannot reach or cannot grip. A basin wrench is the obvious case — the faucet mounting nut sits behind the bowl where no standard wrench fits, and the pivoting jaw on a long shaft is the only practical answer.
Test equipment is the other significant group. Air and water test plugs, gauges and mechanical test balls are used to prove a DWV or supply system before it is covered, and most jurisdictions require a witnessed test at rough-in.
