I need help identifying an old plumbing tool

[Trollerama]

Hi,

I found this old tool in my basement.

Does anyone know what it is or what it was used for?

Any information would be appreciated. Thanks!

It's a faucet seat cutter.

Certainly, Neon. It looks like a ratcheting double-ended ballpeen hammer. Seriously... I don't have a clue. Possibly some sort of a specialty tool that had only one application such as a machine valve switch handle. If that is the case, the information may be next to impossible to find.

It,s a tap (fawcet) reseating tool. Tam

You must be from Flanders's neighborhood. The fat and greedy like to call them faucets.

I guess it does come off as you offending me. Not what I meant, but if it gets you off, I'll run with it :-)

Looks like a nice one, I'd keep it, considering the junk they now make.. Lot of people still need them.
