KOTTO Ratchet PEX Crimping Clamp Cinch Tool & Pipe Hose Cutter Meets ASTM 2098 & Stainless Steel Pipe Clamps, Pipe Fitting Tool Kit Sizes 3/8" to 1" - 20 pcs 1/2", 10 pcs 3/4" Clamps With Storage Bag

This was a great option for me because I just needed the tool to repair a leak and reroute the piping on a new RV toilet install. Prior to ordering, I took a fieldtrip to Lowe's to price out the tools and I wasn't interested in investing in the cinch tool ($80-$100) and the pipe cutting tool ($25-$30) especially since I probably wasn't going to use it a bunch outside of the initial project.I considered trying to 'cheap out' and use a pair of needle nose pliers to clamp and a miter saw to cut the PEX to size , but I'm really glad I didn't. The clamps were harder to close than I anticipated, but the cinch tool made quick work of them (I don't know that I would've had the leverage required with a pair of regular pliers). The cutting tool was amazing. Very little force was needed to cut and the cuts were super clean!The carrying case is an added plus because I'm keeping it in my RV in case there are any future PEX problems and it keeps everything organized and stores away nicely in an area where I don't have a lot of extra storage.I can't speak to the longevity of the tools, since I will hopefully only need to use them once or twice, but they definitely made the job easier and saved me a lot of time and money from taking it to someone else to do the work.

This clinching tool along with the pipe hose cutter and crimp clamp rings took care of a bathroom tub and shower connection that I put off for a while because I was debating on re-running copper pipe or go-with-the PEX piping. So, I decided on going with PEX. Went to the Home Depot to see what tools I needed to my surprise, the tool alone that can handle 1/2 "- 1" crimps was running well over $50.00. No crimp rings, no cutting tool, no nice carrying bag, nothing! So, what do you do in a situation like that? Head on over to Amazon.com and search for one and without much effort, I found the KOTTO Pex Crimping Clamp Cinch Tool and Pipe Hose Cutter that came with a calibration plate and crimp rings for 1/2" and 3/4" PEX pipe.The cutting tool sliced thru the 1/2" PEX pipe like it was butter! The lightweight tool was also able to trim off 1/8" of the PEX without slipping if you keep a steady hand. The crimps were clean and did not disengage until the crimp was complete. I have two more piping projects coming up in the house and I cannot wait to use it again. Good price with extras.

I bought this so I could replace a water check valve on my motorhome myself. It worked perfectly and the clips provided were easy to use, the cutting tool isn't as large as I hoped for, but it worked on this job.I did one practice clip on a piece of Pex I bought, just to make sure the replacement job would work. Now that I have the tools I can repair my own plumbing in our house as well.

Having never worked on PEX tubing before, I was shocked to see how much the tools to cut the tubing and to crimp the clamps cost. I was hopeful this tool set would get the job done and it did! Including the clamps is a nice bonus. I needed to replace a couple of shut off valves under the sink and this set got the job done. All at a cost less than a quarter of buying the tools at a home improvement store.

This product has worked perfectly for me. Takes a little getting used to for the clamp but all in all for the money, excellent.

GREAT PRODUCT.

I haven't used it yet but for the money, it looks well made.

The PEX cutter works well and made nice and smooth cuts with ease. The Crimp tool works well but I wasn’t strong enough to squeeze the tool handle together all the way. I found that using a squeeze clamp to help squeeze the handles of the crimp tool together made up for it and the job then became super easy!
