Pipe Fittings Supply

In American piping systems, copper rings, clamp rings, and expansion rings play vital roles in ensuring secure, leak-free connections, especially in residential and commercial plumbing applications. Each type of ring is designed to meet specific installation and performance needs—and IWISS tools are highly compatible with all three, offering precision and reliability for installers.

Copper rings are commonly used with PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) tubing in crimp-style fittings. Known for their durability and corrosion resistance, these rings create a strong mechanical seal when compressed over the tubing and fitting using a crimping tool. IWISS copper ring crimpers provide the necessary force and accuracy to ensure a solid, leak-proof joint.

Clamp rings, also used with PEX tubing, serve a similar function but operate with stainless-steel construction and a cinch or clamp tool. These rings are tightened around the tubing and fitting, creating a watertight seal. IWISS clamp tools are known for their ergonomic design and consistent performance, making them a top choice for both DIYers and professionals.

Expansion rings, typically made of PEX or plastic, are integral to the cold-expansion method. Used with PEX-A tubing, IWISS expansion tools allow for easy and precise expansion of the tubing and ring, facilitating a strong, secure fit as the materials contract.

With IWISS tools, installers can confidently work with any of these ring types, ensuring high-quality results across a range of piping applications.
