Milwaukee M18 Pro Press Tool in Action

Milwaukee’s 18v pro press is a fantastic tool that can be used for crimping your copper pipe fittings as well as mega press fittings for black iron pipe. I really like the compact design of this tool without loosing power.

When you use the right tool to do the job right and you do it once and do not have to repeat.

damn all that for a water heater tho lmao

Great tool ! That’s $4400, way too expensive for a diy’r ! Looking for a consumer version. (Cordless not manual)

Me watching this with no knowledge on plumbing or tools: 👁 👄 👁

Everyone says this is the new way. I could see a tight space being a problem for this tool.

[marvellstarks]

Is that the long throw. That looks long. I might need to buy the m12 so I can fit in tight places

Why so many fittings to do a water heater

[dumdiversaspapalbull]

They were just getting into these fittings when I got out of plumbing. I used to see them in my plumbing supply house and at Lowe’s, and I thought it was the stupidest “s” I had ever seen.

I guess silver solder is going to be a thing of the past eventually.

[rolac]

So, how would you remove them, cutting the pipe again and install all that again ?

[iffarnezan]

Ça fait quoi la machine ? Sertage ou sedur ?

[Zoopiter]

A bit overkill with the mega press on 3/4” copper lol
