Rechargeable Flashlight
Plumbers need to see in the darkest places, so a bright, rechargeable flashlight makes the perfect gift. This Fenix LD15R right-angle flashlight features a magnet tailcap and a two-way body clip for hands-free work. It measures only 2.47 inches long and weighs less than 2 ounces, but it offers a maximum output of 500 lumens and reaches 93 yards. It charges through a built-in micro-USB charging port.
Multi-Tool
Plumbers need a range of tools at their fingertips, so a multi-tool makes a great gift. This Milwaukee Fastback folding knife opens with one hand and features a wire stripper and gut hook for quick cutting. It includes a built-in magnetic blade holder to store additional blades. If you’re looking for an upgrade, this Leatherman Surge best seller features 21 tools and is crafted specifically for plumbers, electricians, HVAC, and construction professionals.

Portable Device Charger
A portable, compact charger delivers a speedy charge to phones and tablets right when it’s needed. This Anker PowerCore 10,000 portable charger delivers high-speed charging for multiple Apple and Samsung devices. It’s small, lightweight, and charges reliably while on the go.
Knee Pads
Plumbers spend hours on their knees repairing plumbing systems. A Klein Tools kneeling pad from Amazon eases the discomfort. It’s constructed with a one-inch thick NBR foam, which repels water and returns to its original form after compression. For those who want to spend more, ProKnee knee pads provide non-skid construction and a live hinge to stabilize knees.
Water Tumbler
Plumbers may work around water all day, but they still need to stay hydrated. They’ll appreciate this Yeti 64-ounce water bottle with a chug cap to keep their drinking water cold all day. Make it more personal by customizing it with a design, logo, or monogram.
Travel Mug
Help plumbers keep their coffee hot between jobs with a 16-ounce Stanley Classic trigger-action travel mug. This stainless-steel, leak-proof mug features double-wall vacuum insulation. Its trigger action enables easy drinking with one push of a button. It’s easy to clean and comes in a range of classic colors. Best of all, it comes with a lifetime warranty.
Work Gloves
Plumbers need to protect their hands when installing and repairing PEX, PVC, and copper pipes. These Milwaukee work gloves feature a textured nitrile palm for better grip and a high-dexterity design for handling small materials. The construction allows workers to use touchscreen technology without removing their gloves. Add in a Klein Tools multi-bit stubby screwdriver for a useful addition to the tool bag.
Tool Holder
Plumbers need to keep their tools handy, from pliers and pipe wrenches to hacksaws and hammers. This Veto Pro compact tool pouch keeps their toolkit handy. Made for professionals in the trades, the bag features 20 internal pockets, 14 external pockets, two metal tape clip holders, and a hang-up hook. The bag also comes with a five-year warranty.
