Damage items good for me

Product arrived damage, if you zoom into the picture you can see all the oil was dripping from the hydraulic, and tube cutter wasn’t even metal it was plastic which wasn’t working neither. Never ordering from seller again. Had to sent back the item and it took them 2 weeks after the product arrived to give me my refund back

Pros
  • No so bad
Cons
  • My 7/8" expander missing from box

Garbage, it no longer works after a handful of times used!

I've had this tubing expander for just over 3 months and only used it 5 or 6 times and now it won't release the hydrolic pressure. Very disappointed with this product's durability, or lack there of.

Pros
  • This a very handy suaging tool for the HVAC market. I was happy to see one for a reasonable price.
Cons
  • I returned it after less than a week because it stopped working. I did less than 10 swages with it

Broke on first use for my opinion

Great concept poor execution - at least in the metallurgy of the expansion jaws. The cast jaws are the weak point and didn’t last more than one use.

Pros
  • Ac work
Cons
  • Risk of Damage: The hydraulic expander generates tremendous force, which can damage the tubing and cause leaks or other malfunctions in the HVAC system

I test it once and it broke down.

I got home and did one test …and it broke down the test wasn’t even s big deal I put the 3/8 size and while learning how to use it it got stuck and i can’t use it any more i relief it’s pressure and did everything just like the instructions. and it failed.

Pros
  • I used it on a job. It expands the copper tube as it describes easily
Cons
  • Expensive Investment

Easy to use! Cuts the number of folder joints!

This tool expands the end of the copper pipe with ease. Ask with any tool of you use it as intended you won't split the pipe. Great quality.

Pros
  • Diranle
Cons
  • Limited Tube Compatibility
