Rated 5 out of 5 by insan0f1ex from Great tool! I got the PEX crimp tool recently and used it to install a filtration system in my incoming water line. It functions differently from the ratchet type one I use at the job site. It is a lot more simple. Simply position the tool on the crimp ring and press the button. It cycles completely, checking proper crimp pressure during the process. All the user needs to do is hold it in position. Practice once or twice before committing to your work, but you'll be pleasantly surprised. Tight quarters are no problem for this tool versus the long handle type. Full cycle action allows one-handed operation when you are working in a bind. All in all, this has been a good purchase!

Rated 4 out of 5 by Jmprogressivednr from So far so good As a service plumber I use a lot of pinch clamps instead of crimp rings when making repairs on piping. The ratcheting tools are much smaller and easier to get into some places than the big chunky crimper, and one tool does most all of the sizes i normally run into. But on larger jobs my hands still get sore using the ratchet crimper all day. This tool doesn't fit quite everywhere the hand crimper does, but if I can use it on 90 out of 100 rings, I'll call that a win. It saves me time and it saves me pain at the end of the day. What more can I ask for? As for the durability, it's too early to tell for sure, but it seems tough enough to last a good long while.

Rated 5 out of 5 by cdkatkd from Great tool I've been looking to upgrade my pex pinch clamp manual tool with one that is not manual. So when I seen this tool I was excited. Wow I must say bets the day lights out of using a manual pex pinch clamp tool. Ryobi made this tool so easy to use & its compact size makes it easy to get in tighter spots then you can get the manual pinch clamp tool. It has cut my time down as well so a win, win. I would tell any one doing much plumbing go out & get one.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Chuck from Exactly what I was looking for I don't need the example, "I bought this a month ago and am so glad I did! " I am crazy glad to have found this tool. Not only have I invested in the 18+ Ryobi tech, I have used their tools for ages. Most of mine are blue, either electric powered or nicad battery powered. (all the lithium batteries work with the older generation nicad tools) I've been plumbing for nearly 50 years and am always reluctant to try the "latest" new thing. When I gave pex piping a try it wasn't long before I switched from copper rings to stainless cinch rings. It makes more sense to only need one tool for 4 pipe sizes! At my age, probably any age, if you do 30-40 crimps a day, your hands are shot. This tool might not reach everywhere you need a crimp, but believe me let it do the ones it can and when you need that special attention crimp you'll be fresh enough to do it! Love this thing. The fact that Ryobi did it first is icing on the cake for me. I was looking for something and didn't care who made it! I actually can't believe rigid and "propress" haven't become aware of the need for a tool like this. Good job Ryobi.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Gord from Expensive but great tool. I bought the tool to replace all of the poly-b in my house with pex. When I bought it, I thought that it used crimp rings. I didn't even know that the clamps existed, so I had to return the rings I had bought and buy clamps which were a bit more money. Over a period of about a week, I made about 250 clamps with the same 2aH battery and it still had a good charge. I'm sure that I would have never been able to do this job with a regular crimp tool as I had to get into some pretty tight spaces where there was only room for one hand. Still had some difficulty with a few connections, particularly when clamping a 90 degree elbow from the inside, but overall, it worked great. The LED light was a great plus as well. I'm curious as to why HD only sells these on line in Canada. Would have been nice to just go to the store and pick one up.

Rated 5 out of 5 by daustin from Perfect tool This is one great tool, it beats having to use the manual ring clamp tool. It really cuts down on time there, The design and hand feel is perfect. I was truly surprised on how I could fit it in the tight spaces in my house to get a good clamp on the line. I am so happy that Ryobi came out with this this is a life saver!
