Our take on the SharkBite 1/2-in and 3/4-in Compact PEX Crimp Tool 5259466

The SharkBite Compact PEX Crimp Tool crimps copper rings onto 1/2-in and 3/4-in PEX pipe to ASTM F-1807 spec, for potable water and heating lines. It is a short-handle, offset-jaw tool built for tight spaces, with ergonomic grips and a stainless steel body at about 2.7 lbs. The best new price is $44.99 at eBay as of November 5, 2026, and 4 stores carry it new. That is a modest price for a name-brand crimper, though the compact size means more hand force than a full-length tool.

Questions and answers

Is $44.99 a good price for this crimp tool?
Yes. $44.99 at eBay as of November 5, 2026 is a low price for a branded 1/2-in and 3/4-in PEX crimper. Four stores sell it new, so compare before buying.
Does it work on both 1/2-in and 3/4-in PEX?
Yes. It crimps copper rings on both 1/2-in and 3/4-in PEX pipe to ASTM F-1807 spec.
Will it crimp stainless clamp or expansion fittings?
No. It is a copper crimp ring tool only. For clamp fittings you need a clamp tool, and for expansion PEX you need an expansion tool.
Do I need a crimp gauge too?
A go/no-go gauge is not listed in the box. Buy one separately to confirm each ring is crimped to spec.
Is the compact size hard on the hands?
The short handles mean more squeeze force, especially on 3/4-in rings. If you crimp all day, a full-length tool is easier.
