RIDGID Press-In Branch Connector Tool Kit eliminates need to weld

The RIDGID® Press-In Branch Connector allows the user to make quick ¾-in. branch connections on black steel pipe. It is suitable for adding gauges or ¾-in. pipe in chilled water, compressed air, industrial gas, and low-pressure steam system applications. The tool can be used on 1½- to 6-in. black steel pipe.

The toolkit includes an expander that fits all of the company’s standard press tools, fitting positioning guides, an arbor shaft assembly, drill guide, and vacuum adapters.

The hole saw arbor attaches to standard drills, includes an M27 hole saw, and is designed to prevent the saw from penetrating both sides of the pipe.
