What pipe sizes does it crimp?

It comes with jaws for 1/2 in., 3/4 in. and 1 in. copper pipe. Those three sizes are what the tool is built around.

Does it need a battery or power outlet?

No. The press force comes from its hydraulic drive, so there is no battery, charger or cord to deal with.

How is it different from a cordless press tool?

It trades the battery for a hydraulic body. You give up speed and portability but avoid battery cost and charging.

Can the jaws be rotated?

Yes. The jaws rotate, which helps line the head up with fittings in tight runs and near walls.

Is it for copper only?

The supplied jaws are sized for copper pipe. Pressing other materials or sizes would need different jaws.

Plumbers and installers who press copper fittings regularly and want a hydraulic tool without a battery platform.

Our take on the SKYSHALO Copper Pipe Crimping Tool Hydraulic Driven Press Tool

A hydraulic press tool for crimping copper pipe fittings, supplied with 1/2 in., 3/4 in. and 1 in. jaws. The hydraulic drive does the squeezing, so you seat a fitting and pull the trigger instead of working long manual handles. Rotating jaws let you turn the head to reach fittings in tight runs and near walls. It suits plumbers and installers doing repeat copper work, and it competes with battery press tools on simplicity: no charger or battery to manage, but it is heavier and slower per joint than a cordless press gun.
