Award Winning Tools on Show

Kopex International is demonstrating its CORGI award winning Pipeslice and Pipe-prep professional pipe tools at PHEX 2007.  The genuine Kopex Pipeslice is a single handed plumbing tool that makes copper pipe cutting easy whilst Pipe-prep is a combination tool which safely and quickly cleans and deburrs copper pipe ends. 

Pipeslice is a time and effort-saving solution to cutting copper piping - a simple task which installers face on a day-to-day basis.  With a simple twist of the wrist the automatically adjusting tool provides a clean cut-through for various sizes of copper piping.  It is ideal for professional plumbers, heating, ventilation and gas installers.  It is available in a range of sizes and packs.

Pipe-prep prepares copper pipe ends, flattening and smoothing, rather than cutting off burrs. The tool maintains the integrity of the material but produces the right shape for subsequent joining.  It removes oxidisation, a common cause of pipe joint failures, making it easier and quicker to effect sound joints.  With Pipe-prep, any burr on the inside of the pipe is rolled and smoothed and there is no swarf so contaminant-free pipe work is ensured.

Pipe-Prep’s smoothing action also removes any sharp edges and consequently reduces the problem of restricted flow.  Using the tool also means more contact surface area for joints, giving them long life and fewer failures.

Website www.pipeslice.com features video tutorial on how to use both products, and a the Kopex Professional Pipe Tools guide gives the trade professional all he needs to know to specify the correct product combination and use the tools successfully.
