Reed Mfg PES2CTS PE Squeeze-Off Tool, 1/2" - 2"

REED offers the best designed tools for stopping flow in ½” up to 8” PE pipe. Different models handle a wide range of pipe sizes and applications. Sliding bar handles make work in tight places easier and increase leverage for tightening. Fine-pitched thread on feed screw allows for a controlled, low-effort squeeze. Grease fittings at friction points make operation smoother and extend tool life. Aluminum bars are anodized or painted for protection from the elements. All PE squeeze-off tools use positive stops to prevent damage caused by over-clamping. Multiple size/SDR settings on one pair of stops provide quick, convenient over-squeeze protection for standard pipe sizes.

 REED Squeeze-Off Tools for all US nominal pipe sizes follow these standards:  ASTM F1734, ASTM F1041, ASTM F1563. For all the metric pipe sizes, they follow ISO 4437 standards.

 NOTE: REED strongly recommends use of the PEGR7 Static Grounding Device (#04621) with PE Squeeze-Off Tools. Use a grounding device as a precaution against static build-up. Dissipate the charge and minimize the possibility of ignition.
