Pipe Pressing Tool Hire

Pipe Press Tool Hire for Heating and Plumbing applications 

The Rems Akku-Press Cordless Pipe Pressing Tool is a valuable piece of equipment to have in your tool kit.

Powered off a Li-Ion rechargeable battery pack this Rems tool allows fast repeat jointing to be made with a wide variety of pipe fittings including the popular Yorkshire Fittings (by Pegler) and Geberit Mapress Fittings. In addition to the tool you will need the correct tong to undertake connection joints on your heating or plumbing pipe fittings. 

As you would expect with Rems a comprehensive range are available to suit most pipe fittings for copper, steel, as well as various types of plastic piping.

In the UK there are countless numbers of press fittings on the market for press jointing of both gas and water pipes. These are for copper, steel, as well as several plastic types of piping.

What about traceability?

The REMS pressing tongs / pressing rings with a pressing contour M, V, SA, B, RN and UP, have worked a specific marking into the pressing contour which leaves a lasting impression on the pressed fitting after the pressing  process has been completed. This enables the user to check again whether the most suitable pressing tongs or the suitable pressing ring have been used to make the pressfit connection (even after the pressing process). With this traceability REMS fulfils the recommendations of the European standard EN 1775:2007 for the installation of press fitting systems for gas.

Buy or hire one of these tools?

If you are a full time gas or plumbing engineer you may choose to buy one of these pipe pressing tools, if you only need one on an occasional basis though it may be more cost effective to hire one instead.

This cordless pressing tool can usually be hired from a tool hire shop that supplies engineering and plumbing equipment as well as construction equipment. It is not a tool that can be found in a tool hire shop that focusses on products for DIY'ers. It is classed as a specialist and unique tool that is designed for the trade user that recognises the time saving benefit it offers over traditional compression and the various soldering methods of completing pipe fitting joints.
