No, this tool is specifically designed for flexible plastic pipes such as MDPE, PE, and PEX. Using it on metal pipes can damage both the tool and the pipe.
The tool is designed to work with pipes ranging from 0 mm to 32 mm in diameter.
Squeeze-off tools apply pressure to stop flow, which may leave a temporary indentation; ensure you are working on a section of pipe you intend to replace or repair.
It is made of rust-resistant steel alloy, but it should be kept dry and clean after use to ensure maximum durability.
The set includes the Squeeze-Off Tool and a pair of cotton gloves.
The tool weighs approximately 500g, making it very portable for field work.
Ensure the pipe is correctly centered in the jaws and the tool is tightened as far as possible; verify the pipe material is compatible.
Check the screw threads for debris or lack of lubrication and clear any obstruction.
To use the tool, place the pipe between the two jaws, ensuring the pipe is centered. Use the adjustable handle to tighten the clamp until the water flow ceases. Always verify that the pipe is indeed made of flexible plastic (MDPE, PE, or PEX) before application, as attempting to use this on PVC or metallic piping can cause permanent damage to the tool or the pipe.
Care instructions include wiping the tool down with a dry cloth after every use to ensure the steel alloy remains free from debris. While the tool is rust-resistant, storing it in a dry location will prolong its service life. Regularly check the adjustment threads for any buildup of dirt or pipe sediment to keep the mechanism operating smoothly.
