Which fittings does it work with?

It is stated for Viega Copper, Pro-Press, Elkhart and Conex fittings. Match the jaw size to the fitting size before pressing.

Does it crimp all three sizes?

Yes. It comes with jaws for 1/2", 3/4" and 1" copper pipe and fittings.

Will the head fit in tight spaces?

The head rotates 360 degrees, which helps position the jaws around fittings in cramped areas.

Is it better than a manual press tool?

The hydraulic pump does the pressing force, which is easier on the hands over many fittings. A manual tool is lighter and simpler for occasional use.

The jaws are forged AISI 4140 steel and the pump body is AISI 5140 steel.

Can it replace soldering?

It presses compatible fittings onto copper pipe; it does not solder, cut or deburr pipe.

Our take on the Hydraulic Copper Pipe Crimping Tool with 1/2", 3/4", and 1 Inch Jaws

A hydraulic crimping tool for copper pipe, supplied with jaws for 1/2", 3/4" and 1" fittings. It works with Viega Copper, Pro-Press, Elkhart and Conex fittings, so it covers the press systems most residential plumbers meet. The 360-degree rotating head lets it reach fittings in tight spaces, and the integrated pump is built to limit oil leakage. The jaws are forged from AISI 4140 steel and the pump body from AISI 5140 steel. It suits plumbers and serious DIYers doing repeat press work; it is heavier and more expensive than a manual press tool, and it is not a soldering or cutting tool.
