    Thanks in advance, this was a tool a plumber friend has that I know I need also. I think I could make out that it's a Ridgid, but not sure.

    Crimping tool recommendations

    I’m after a crimping tool and looking for recommendations on what everyone uses and also how much you paid for it etc. I know they are expensive, but don’t want to get ripped off. Also do the tools work for all fittings or do you need specific fittings to match the individual jaws?

We recommend City Plumbing Supplies, BES, and Plumbing Superstore for all plumbing supplies.
