This kit is designed for copper crimp ring (ASTM F1807) and stainless steel cinch clamp (ASTM F2098) systems, commonly used with PEX-B tubing. It does not work with PEX expansion (F1960) systems. If you're using expansion fittings, you'll need a different tool.

It supports 1/2",3/4", and 1" PEX copper crimp rings and stainless steel cinch clamps — covering the most common residential plumbing sizes.

Yes. It includes a dedicated removal tool for cutting and removing copper crimp rings and stainless cinch clamps. This allows you to correct installation errors without replacing the fitting (if it remains undamaged).

No. The tool comes factory calibrated and ready to use. For added confidence, you may verify crimps with a Go/No-Go gauge, especially for inspection-required installations.

Position the ring 1/8"–1/4" from the tubing end, complete a full crimp cycle, and check with a Go/No-Go gauge. Proper positioning and full compression are key to preventing leaks.
