Expansion Squeeze handles for several times, expansion head will rotate automatically. Connection After the final expansion, immediately remove tool and insert in fitting. PEX-A Expansion Tool Kit with 1/2 in., 3/4 in. and 1 in. Expander Heads IWS-1960R Auto Rotation Expansion Tool Kit includes convenient custom-molded carrying case, expander tool, three expander heads, grease and PEX tubing cutter.Expands type A PEX pipe for insertion of ASTM F1960 expansion-style fittings.Includes everything needed to make 1/2 in. - 1 in. PEX-a connections.Steel construction for superior reliability and strength.Metal frame and gear mechanisms ensure the utmost durability.Go/no-go gauges are never required.Compatible with most cold expansion-style tools. F1960 cold-expansion fittings make solid, permanent, manufactured connections without the need for torches, glues, solder, flux or gauges. The unique shape memory of crosslinked polyethylene (PEX-a) tubing forms a tight seal around the fitting, creating a strong, reliable connection. Is PEX Expansion better than Crimp? PEX crimp equipment is a lot more affordable than the expansion kits. However, despite of form shortcomings, most plumbers prefer to work with expansion because installation is more efficient. How many expansions are needed to complete expansion? It's recommended to expand 1/2'' by 4 times, 3/4'' by 8 times and 1'' by 10 times. Note: Experience, technique and weather conditions may influence the actual number of expansions. Why reviews say the tool is not auto rotation? Auto rotation is triggered only when the expansion head is encircled by PEX-a tubing during expansion.

Components IWS-1960R PEX-a Expansion Tool Kit with 1/2 in., 3/4 in. and 1 in. expander heads, tool lubricant and a convenient carrying case.
Purpose Designed to make F1960 cold expansions. Solid, permanent, manufactured connections without the need for torches, glues, solder, flux or gauges can be expected by expanding Non-Barrier PEX Tubing and reinforcing ring to make a connection with an ASTM F1960 fitting.
Features Equipped with an Auto Rotation Adapter. Users can simply hold the tubing and tool in place while separating and closing the handles to expand the tubing. The Auto Rotation Adapter will automatically rotate to ensure the tubing is evenly expanded. Roration is not visible because it's triggered only when expansion head teeth is encircled with PEX-a tubing in real expansion situation and active handle is expanded to its full openning
Secure Connection Once the fitting is inserted into the expanded ring and pipe combination, the elastomeric properties of this PEX combination bring the expanded material back around the fitting to make a sealed, permanent and visually inspectable connection.
Applications Plumbing, fire safety, radiant heating and cooling systems. Ideal for residential, commercial and industrial projects.
