Pressing pliers Rems V 18 mm 570125 — pressing tool for 18 mm fittings

Rems pressing pliers V 18 mm (model 570125) are a manual pressing tool designed to form reliable press connections on 18 mm fittings. The tool provides controlled mechanical force to crimp or press-fit metal and multilayer pipe fittings used in plumbing and heating systems. Compact and handheld, the pliers are intended for field assembly, installation and repair work where a consistent press connection is required for 18 mm diameter fittings.

Advantages

The Rems V 18 mm pliers deliver reproducible pressing force and precise jaw alignment to ensure consistent connection quality on 18 mm fittings. Its manual operation requires no external power source, providing portability for on-site jobs and service tasks. The construction focuses on durability and resistance to the loads involved in pressing metal and multilayer piping joints. The tool design also simplifies handling in confined spaces compared with larger pressing machines.

Suitable for

• Press connections of 18 mm metal and multilayer pipe fittings
• Residential plumbing installations and repairs
• Heating system assembly and maintenance
• On-site service work where portability is required

Key specifications

• Compatible connection diameter: 18 mm
• Operation: manual (hand-operated pressing pliers)
• Application: metal and multilayer piping press fittings
• Design: handheld, compact for field use
• Typical use cases: plumbing and heating installations, repair and maintenance

How to use

Position the correct 18 mm press fitting and corresponding pipe ends according to the fitting manufacturer's instructions. Place the open jaws of the Rems V 18 mm pliers around the fitting so the pressing profile aligns with the fitting's press band. Squeeze the handles with steady force until the tool completes the press cycle and the fitting is uniformly compressed. Visually inspect the pressed joint for correct deformation and sealing. Follow any specific preparation steps—such as deburring or cleaning pipe ends—recommended by the fitting manufacturer before pressing.

Usage recommendations

Use only fittings and installation procedures that match the 18 mm specification. Regularly inspect the pliers' jaws for wear and alignment, and replace any worn pressing profiles to maintain consistent joint quality. Store the tool dry and clean to prevent corrosion and to preserve mechanical performance.
