excellent tool
Barry C - 10/14/2026
Nipple wrench removed several nipples on my Pietta that destroyed 3 other types of wrenches. Fits tight and plenty of leverage. Top works great with my hammer drill giving me an impact option. Over all I'm very happy with this product.
Get the Job Done!

Very handy and did an excellent job on a project that was proving to be a tad difficult and had torqued a no-name brand out of shape. Quality tool!
A Must Have!
CHARLES PEFFLEY - 10/01/2026
This Slixshot nipple wrench is a must have for removing your Pietta nipples and installing your new Slixshot nipples! The wrench that came with my Pietta 1858 Remington New Army Revolvers was made out of cheap metal and the "ears" sheared off when I tried to use it to remove the factory nipples.
This Slixshot nipple wrench is unbreakable hard steel that easily removed even the most stubborn nipples and made installing the new Slixshot nipples a real pleasure.
As you can see I love talking about nipples...:)
All the best, Chuck Peffley
Excellent Revolver tool
Chris - 09/18/2026
Great tool for removing black powder revolver nipples. Best I have ever seen and have recommended to many in the N-SSA. I use mine frequently across several revolvers. Have broken or bent other wrenches, not this one. It's the only one I use now.

Praise
James Fry - 08/25/2026
I have purchased many slixspring products and have recommended these to several of my friends. The quality in these products is great and I appreciated that. I have incorporated them in several of my guns or used them as shooting accessories.

I was directed to your company by a fellow gun club member/shooting buddy who was very happy with his 1873 rifle (wide & rounded) trigger. I quickly ordered two for my two ‘73s, I am also very happy with them; they are a real shooting finger saver.

I found that ordering on line was simple and shipping was fast.

I will say that your nipple wrench will not fit the original nipples on my 1860 Colt Army Pietta revolver. But, you did not claim it would, only some reproduction revolvers. I have many other guns that I will use it on.

In summary, I have nothing but praise for your company, your people and the products you sell. I will continue purchasing your products and recommending them to my shooting buddies. I look forward to any new products you will be offering in the future. Keep up the good work.

Product review

I have received the wrench. It seems like a well made tool. I used it on a couple revolvers so far and it did a good job. One revolver had seriously messed up nipples and it got them out without a problem. The only reason I haven't dropped 5 stars on my review is that I haven't used it enough to discover if the heat treatment is good enough for the long haul. However, I am optimistic that it will be fine.
Compact and does the job!

Easy to use, very happy with it!
Very nice wrench

I bought this on recommendation from the YouTube channel Guns of the West. It looks better than any other I saw, fit the nipples snugly and worked very well.
Solid and well made
Phillip Fair - 07/21/2026
I really thought a nipple wrench is a nipple wrench but this fits so well I have zero concerns of ever breaking it or damaging nipples especially if your using slixshot nipples also which I highly recommend

What a nipple wrench does seems pretty straight forward, and for sure it is. But this well designed and built tool does it well. It fits the easy nipples like those on rifles and shotguns, but even a dollar store adjustable wrench will usually suffice here. Where this wrench really shines is on revolvers. I tried several other nipple wrenches on my baby dragoon. Ruined one of them by grinding it down to fit the tiny openings the nipples live in. This wrench worked the first time. Great tool!!!

Review
PolarFBear - 07/01/2026
A bit pricy but it worked. Now I have a good tool. Hope I do not lose it. It would be better if it ALSO included a rifle nipple fitting on the same tool.
The SliX Wrench is better than advertized.

I plan on replacing my Navy Sixes nipples. Now I won't have to look any further than to SliXsprings.
Great Nipple Wrench

By far the best nipple wrench that I have used, well worth the money. Have no fear when dealing with this company.

Perfectly Executed
Peter Hylander - 05/19/2026
This wrench fits perfectly, is a great size and the design and execution is perfect in every way.
Wish i needed to use it more often just because it’s that good.
Issues with stuck nipples
Daryle - 05/15/2026
Works well but with stubborn nipples the metal on the wrench is soft and has a tendency to strip and deform where the the wrench fits over the nipples!, other wise it works well!



Reply from SliXprings:

Thank you for your feedback. Our nipple wrench is heat-treated to a Rockwell hardness of 48–52 and is designed to remove most nipples without damaging them. Nipples that are severely seized by rust, corrosion, or overtightening should be treated with a quality penetrating lubricant and allowed to soak before removal. It is also important to keep the wrench squarely and fully seated on the nipple so that pressure is applied evenly to both sides.

Works great . Should have bought one years ago .
Simply the best
Jeffrey Poulin - 04/28/2026
I've used various nipple wrenches for over 40 years. The Slix Wrench is simply the best, including on Remington 1858, Colt 1851 and 1860 and R&S repro revolvers. It is comfortable to use and never chips or bends. I keep one in the range bag and one in the cleaning kit. Don't expect ever to need any other.
A MUST HAVE tool when changing BP nipples
STEVEN - 04/11/2026
This tool is essential for removing old nipples and replacing them with new ones. old niples can be corroded and hard to turn. this tool gets them moving
