IWS-1010R F1807 PEX Copper Ring Removal Tool for 1/2-Inch, 3/4-Inch, 1-Inch

Works with 1/2″, 3/4″, and 1″ copper crimp rings manufactured to ASTM F1807 specifications; compatible with brass and select PPSU crimp-style PEX fittings.

Yes. The cutter depth is longer than many comparable tools, allowing full penetration of F1807 copper rings.

No. Since the tool targets only the copper ring and does not deform the barb fitting, the sealing surface remains intact for re-crimping.

It is optimized for repair, correction, and retrofit work. For continuous high-volume removal, hydraulic or powered solutions may be more suitable.

The cutting mechanism fractures the copper ring rather than prying it open, minimizing radial stress on the brass barb fitting and preserving its integrity.
