Hi


I just purchased a Milwaukee M12HPT Hydraulic Press Tool and was looking for some opinions before buying jaws for it - been struggling to find a huge amount of information on the internet! I really don't want to buy multiple sets of jaws, would prefer to stick to one profile, but there seems to be different jaws and profiles across manufacturers and copper/plastic?!


Any opinions on the best Press Fit Fittings to use and where to get them from and which jaw profile to go for? Geberit and Peglar seem popular and use 'M' profile jaws?


Do any of the manufacturers make fittings which can be used with copper and plastic or at least a straight connector which can take plastic to copper, ideally with the same profile jaws?


Thanks


Robert
