Pipe threading set wanted

[Masood]

Anyone got a set they want rid of? Don't mind what make - I've heard Ridgid are good, used Rothenberger at college, seemed OK.

Looked at REMS Amigo electric one but seems a lot of money for something I'd use very rarely.

Need to have 1/2", 3/4" and 1" dies as a minimum.

Cheers!

Cheers yeah I saw that one. It's silly money for second-hand kit.

If your only going to use them sparingly then get a cheap set like draper or similar. Does the job and if you break them it's no heartache

Silly money no do you know how much they sell for new ?

I got a set of 6 ridgid second hand on eBay for £45. I've only used the 1/2" on one job but it did the trick.

As far as I could make out, about £350+VAT for that set...

240 mate. I don't do site work any more.

I tend to hire the Rems electric ones, they are a good bit of kit and when they go wrong we get them replaced in 24 hours. For how often they were needed it worked out more cost effective.

Try JMS for hire, if you don't have much luck in buying them, they cover London. 01582 467 000.
