IBOSAD Manual PEX Pipe Expander Tool Kit with 3/8",1/2",3/4",1" Expansion Heads suit for Propex Expansion Meets ASTM F1960 Standard PEX Coupling Fitting Radiant Heat

This tool does exactly as intended. I did not expect it to perform exactly like an electric model but the end result is the same as an electric. Be sure to keep the spreader lubricated. From reading some prior negative posts, I think these people are not lubricating the spreader mechanism. I got the same tool as everyone else and it works as it should. If your profession is a Plumber I would get an Electric model, but Great tool for the home DIY'er.

It's a great piece of equipment and works for the small, handy plumbing jobs I need. Wiserbo tubing worked great, and I could replace my outside spigot without issues. Kept this for future use and for friends to use as well to save a few hundred dollars in plumbing repairs.

Purchased this for a DIY plumbing project. The product works well and gets the job done. The difficulty in pumping is the reason for 4 stars. I am in average shape for someone in their 30s. It is very easy to use on smaller diameter pex but very difficult to use on the 3/4" and 1" piping. For 1", I had to take breaks after each fitting and needed to brace one lever against my leg, the floor, or wall depending on where I was working.

Excellent quality / price half of big box stores plus 3/8 head, as package contains four heads just need to manually rotate the head while expanding tubing, 3/8 exceptionally easy, 1/2 inch easy, 3/4 requires medium effort but very doable for average person 1 in requires some upper strength. Tool will last for years for standard projects, but if your doing a whole house or tight confined quarters spend the money on a electric self-rotating unit. Did about 30 connection flawlessly.

For small projects around the house, this works well. I was able to do small projects (maybe 5-10 expansions per project) on 1/2", 3/4" and 1" pex-A without much struggle. If I was to be doing this full time or taking on a big project, I'd probably splurge for a power tool.

worked great throughout the hole remodel. no leaks on pressure tests or with water.

Very good value. Does the job. Note that it requires arm strength to operate.

My first joint didn't go so well - my bad. You need to make sure to expand the pipe until the expander tool bottoms out in the pipe. After figuring that out its been fast, easy and reliable. Head change is fast and easy, tool seems very robust!

Great tool for the price. Handles are a bit shorter than others I’ve used so the 3/4 and 1 inch pipe are a bit tough but with a little muscle it gets the job done. Would definitely buy again.

Does the job and easy to use.

It works

The tool was solid, easy to use and was a lot better than I expected.
