Solar press tool

[Jimbob]

Hi all,

Im in the market for a press tool for stainless corrogated pipe. Anybody have any recommendations? Looking down the merchants it seems kingspan do one for over £300!

Also noticed navitron sell a press thats seems to do the job for alot less:

TWIN CLAMP TOOL 16

TWIN PRESS TOOL

doesnt seem so substantial though. Any guidance appreciated

Jim

You dont need one, just tighten it up first on a spare fitting to compress ring

surely thats only if you use the washers that close round the pipe? im pretty sure the press tool is a alternative option so you can make the flange with the washers?

Yes but is it worth that money
