Double Squeeze™ PE Squeeze Tools - Manual

More Information

Double bar PE squeeze-off tools provide two pinch points to increase squeeze confidence and yield optimal flow control.  REED offers the best designed tools for stopping flow in ½” up to 8” PE pipe. User input resulted in features like hand grooves for lifting, reduced weight, and a controlled, low-effort squeeze.  Sliding bar handles on these manual squeeze tools make work in tight places easier and increase leverage for tightening. Fine-pitched thread on feed screw allows for a consistent, smooth squeeze. Grease fittings at friction points make operation smooth and extend tool life. Aluminum bars are anodized or painted for protection from the elements. All PE squeeze tools use positive stops to prevent damage caused by over-clamping. Multiple size/SDR settings on one pair of stops provide convenient over-squeeze protection for standard pipe sizes. Plus, users may opt for color-coded stops to make visual stop alignment simpler.

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.

New design removes operator pain points with its reduced weight and durable construction, plus the specially designed, hand placement areas for lifting. To reduce user frustration, the ASTM squeeze and release rates are also adhered to the tool body, eliminating the need to find the manual.
