Perfexim A.793 Pipe Reamer for 16 mm PEX Pipes

The Perfexim A.793 is a professional-grade pipe reamer specifically engineered for 16 mm PEX pipes. This essential plumbing tool is designed to prepare pipe ends by effectively removing internal and external burrs that occur during the cutting process. By restoring the pipe's circular shape and ensuring the correct internal diameter, it facilitates the smooth insertion of fittings, which is critical for maintaining the integrity of modern plumbing and heating installations.

Advantages

Using this reamer significantly improves the reliability of pipe connections by preventing damage to O-rings and seals during the assembly of fittings. Its robust construction ensures durability and consistent performance, allowing for precise material removal without compromising the structural integrity of the PEX pipe. The ergonomic design provides a comfortable grip and allows for quick, efficient preparation of pipe ends, ultimately saving time on site and reducing the risk of leaks in pressurized systems.

Suitable for

• Preparing 16 mm PEX pipes for fitting installation
• Plumbing and heating system maintenance
• Removing burrs after cutting PEX pipes
• Ensuring leak-proof connections in residential piping

When it may not be suitable

This tool is exclusively designed for 16 mm PEX pipes and will not function correctly with pipes of different diameters or materials such as copper, steel, or rigid PVC. It is not intended for heavy-duty industrial pipe cutting or for use on pipes that have already been permanently installed in restricted spaces where the tool cannot be rotated.

Key specifications

• Compatible pipe diameter: 16 mm
• Material compatibility: PEX pipes
• Function: Internal and external deburring and pipe rounding

How to use

To use the Perfexim A.793, insert the reamer head into the cut end of the 16 mm PEX pipe. Apply gentle pressure and rotate the tool in a clockwise direction. Continue rotating until the internal and external burrs are completely removed and the pipe end is perfectly rounded. Once the surface is smooth and the edge is clean, remove the tool and proceed with the installation of the fitting according to the manufacturer's instructions.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the outer diameter of your PEX pipe is exactly 16 mm
• Ensure you have sufficient clearance around the pipe end for tool rotation
• Check if your specific fitting system requires additional pipe preparation steps

Usage recommendations

Always ensure the pipe is cut squarely before using the reamer to achieve the best results. Regularly inspect the cutting blades for debris and clean them to maintain optimal performance and prevent scratching the inner surface of the pipe.
