• Mid-Duty 8" Hydraulic PE Squeeze Tool Exerts 50,000 lb. (222,400 N) of force onto the pipe PES8H comes standard with a single acting manual hydraulic pump Positive stops prevent pipe damage caused by over-clamping Easy to use in line because bottom bar swings open to fit around pipe

REED offers the best designed tools for stopping flow in PE pipe. Mid duty hydraulic models offer squeeze ease for the operator. Grease fittings at friction points make operation smoother and extend tool life. Aluminum bars are anodized or painted for protection from the elements. All PE squeeze-off tools use positive stops to prevent damage caused by over-clamping. Multiple size/SDR settings on one pair of stops provide quick, convenient over-squeeze protection for standard pipe sizes.REED Squeeze-Off Tools for all US nominal pipe sizes follow these standards: ASTM F1734, ASTM F1041, ASTM F1563. For all the metric pipe sizes, they follow ISO 4437 standards.NOTE: REED strongly recommends use of the PEGR7 Static Grounding Device (#04621) with PE Squeeze-Off Tools. Use a grounding device as a precaution against static build-up. Dissipate the charge and minimize the possibility of ignition.
