Review of amzcnc Amazon hydraulic pro press

- Опубликовано: 7 фев 2025
- For $100 not the worst tool in the world if you will be pro pressing once or twice or making a quick repair without spending $1500 on a top name brand. This tool does has its flaws. The bottom chick on mine usually puts up a fight letting go of the copper fitting. If you have one let me know what you think of it. I know there are also non hydraulic ones where you manually press it but this one seems to be the best fit for the price and what I use it for
AMZCNC Copper Tube Fittings Pipe Crimping Tool with 1/2",3/4" and 1" Jaw Copper Pipe Propress Crimper Pressing Pliers (AMZ-1632Orange) a.co/d/8gQuLzU
Thank you for this review. I was thinking about getting one of these and its people like you who take the time to share your experiences with the world that convince me to make this purchase. Thank you very much for taking the time to put this out there!
No problem. I really do think it’s good but not if you’re using it for your day job. I still can’t figure out why they get stuck in the chuck but hopefully you won’t have that bad of a problem. It’s kinda gotten better the more I used it
Thanks for the review. I've just placed an order for one and I feel a little more comfortable now I've seen you use it
Seeing you working so hard, I would rather weld
And for those amateurs who don't feel comfortable braising, these tools and reviews are invaluable.
Everyone does a review simply pressing fittings. Try it in a real application that's inconvenience and it's not that easy at all.
For typical projects around the house Sharkbite is the way to go as far as I'm concerned. Essentially they both boil down to an O-ring. Properly prepared Sharkbite has never let me down and I've gotten them in places you'd never be able to use this tool in.
@@martinb.8681 at the end of the video I have me in a ceiling in a commercial building using the tool. It works ok in a commercial setting but tight spots are less than ideal. Shark bites are great for around the house but allot of Plummers probably won’t use them
@@matthewcarlacci I know one $100 and hour plumber that used a couple on my sons sons house. As for the implication that plumbers stick to the tried and true that dog don't hunt. Sweating copper joints in some application a real art form. Now they break all use propress and that expensive tool that any schlub could operate, do the job in a fraction of the time and charge twice as much plus the drive out fee. When they aren't using that it's pex again with clamping systems that are user friendly.
Plumbers have never made so much money and had so many ways to accomplish their job that are so easy.
The oring isnt wat does the seal its the compression of the copper unlike a sharkbite which solely relies on the oring
@@Vanadinit3 That is absolutely not true. Were it not for O-rings pro pex fittings would be dripping all over the place.
@@martinb.8681plenty of videos on here showing that you are wrong.
how does the head spin? I'm struggling to move mine and thanks for the heads up on how to use it. Instructions are awful
@rob_ok i haven’t picked up the tool in a while but i think if you look closely when im putting the chuck in around 0:40 in there is a small black set screw. If you loosen that it should spin. If you still have trouble let me know I’ll check when i return from work
@@matthewcarlacci i didn't even see that! thank you. have you stopped using it, because its a bad tool or just not needed it, can i please ask?
@ I switched jobs and they gave me a battery operated pro press. It’s still in my garage so I just haven’t needed it. Its not a tool I’d choose over a battery one but it’s good for if you use it every once in a while
@@matthewcarlacci I'm hardly going to use it, but want to move a radiator and cap off another. So a battery operated one, is far too expensive for that little bit of work i feel! Mayb im wrong, and thank you again
Did you try to press 3/4” tee? It seems like it is not possible with the tool as even elbow is tricky
I believe it is advertised as not being able to do T’s . The elbows you can do but the tool does a great job of getting in the way
Not "pumpin" lying in the dark cold under a house trying to connect a system ! Not too good a tool. True, good for just a couple things!
The way I see you're struggling with the thing, it is a NO good one. $100.00 bucks? I rather spend few bucks more (less then $50.00 more) for the a lot better quality product.
I’d like to see what one you are talking about, would be interested in giving it a go
@@matthewcarlacci so am I.
What product???
