RIDGID PRESSING TOOLS
RIDGID ProPress tools and the new RIDGID RP 251 are designed for professional plumbers, contractors, and anyone involved in pipe-fitting work, offering a reliable, efficient, and fast method of joining pipes. These tools are part of a larger family of pipe-pressing tools that utilize hydraulic pressure to create secure, watertight connections in copper, stainless steel, and PEX pipes. By eliminating the need for soldering, gluing, or threading, ProPress systems significantly reduce installation times while minimizing the risk of leaks.
One of the key features of RIDGID ProPress tools is their ease of use. With a press of a button, the tool delivers a precise amount of force to crimp the fittings onto the pipe, ensuring a consistent and strong connection every time. This reduces the need for repeated inspections or repairs due to human error, making the process both more efficient and cost-effective. Additionally, RIDGID ProPress tools come in a range of sizes and models to accommodate various pipe diameters and materials, providing flexibility for a wide variety of plumbing applications.
ProPress tools also offer safety advantages. Since there’s no need for an open flame, the risk of fire hazards commonly associated with soldering is eliminated, making ProPress systems a preferred choice for work in confined spaces or near combustible materials. RIDGID has developed its tools with durability in mind, incorporating long-lasting battery power and robust construction that withstands the rigors of job site conditions.
Overall, RIDGID ProPress tools have become a popular choice in the plumbing industry due to their combination of speed, reliability, and safety. Their ability to streamline the pipe-joining process while maintaining high-quality standards makes them indispensable for professionals looking to increase productivity and reduce downtime on projects.
