Cleanout Plug Handle Measurement

[crazy4life]

Can someone give me a quick measurement on the width of the handle. Making a t wrench to take them out. Once you get old the hand grip strength ain't what it used to be.

If they're not stuck, and just sticky or sticking, lube the rubber ring. Pool lube has been mentioned, but beeswax seems to be the new hotness, and it seems to last longer.

You shouldn't need a wrench or tool unless it's stuck. You should be able to turn them with ease (quite literally, 2-3 fingers, actually).
