How to use
Prepare the pipe ends by cutting them square and deburring to ensure proper seating of the fitting and crimp ring. Slide the crimp ring onto the pipe, insert the fitting to the correct depth, then position the tool’s jaws over the ring. Squeeze the handles evenly until the crimp is complete, ensuring the ring is fully compressed around the fitting. After crimping, inspect the joint visually and, where required, perform a pressure test according to local standards to verify tightness.
Usage recommendations
Use only crimp rings and fittings approved for PEX-AL-PEX U16–25 systems. Verify pipe and fitting compatibility before crimping, maintain the tool according to manufacturer guidance, and perform regular inspections of jaws and components. For pressure-sensitive systems, conduct a pressure test after assembly and follow applicable plumbing codes and safety procedures.
