A toothed tool deforms the pipe into fitting recesses to create a secure gas- and liquid-tight joint without specialized press tools.
Elongated-hole bolt joints let press jaws self-align during crimping, improving force uniformity on tubular workpieces without added complexity.
A spindle nut and pivoted levers deliver full pressing strokes without reset, while tactile feedback helps avoid over-pressing pipe fittings.
Pre-positioned tube holding and automatic release prevent distortion and three-folding during flexible tube fusion joining.
Repeated press-splitting with a slitting punch forms smooth deep grooves, recesses, and flanges on metal ends for easier joining.
