Kit for NPT with hole saws and arbor in storage case

• Hot tap tool for piping, fittings and valves with NPT threads.
• Hot tap steel, galvanized, copper, brass or aluminum pipe for installing branch connections from 3/4” to 4” valves.
• Complete kit includes main body assembly, shafts, hole saw assortment, arbor and accessories in a storage case.
• REED Mechanical Hot Tapping Machine is the tapping machine only with valves, saddles, fittings and piping supplied by the operator.
•   
• Valve Size:  3/4" -4"

All REED DM3MECH models make branch connections through 3/4” to 4” valves on any appropriately sized mainline for most piping materials. With the right hole saw, these machines connect to chilled and hot water systems up to 300 psi and steam systems up to 15 psi without a shutdown of service This process is known as hot tapping.  The machine works for mild steel, galvanized steel, stainless steel, copper, brass and aluminum pipe.  Mechanical Hot Tapping Machine drills through the pipe wall via fittings inserted into the service saddle or thread-o-let. The machine eliminates the need to shut down, drain, cut, refit and refill piping systems.

DM3MECH consists of a main body assembly that fits into a 1 ¼” NPT fitting (not provided), along with ½” diameter shafts, hole saws, arbor, coupon retaining drill bit and more.

NOTES: 

• Hole saws are to be used per hole saw manufacturer's recommended RPM with a 3/8" or 1/2” drill motor.
• Not recommended for ammonia, gas or other caustic systems.
• This DM3MECH tool is not recommended for use on plastic pipe

REED's torpedo levels are convenient for jobsite use due to their modest size.  Choose from the waterworks LV6WW with 4 vials, or the 9 inch plumber's version LV9PLB also with 4 vials.  Each one measures pitch, level and plumb.  Each torpedo level features a V-groove edge to set on pipe or conduit. The torpedo level is a great choice for close quarters and provides true measurements in easy-to-read vials.

• Waterworks Use
• Length: 6.5"
• Pitch vial for easy and accurate slope measurements.
• V-groove feature for pipes.
• Precision milled, secure attachment surface for superior accuracy.
• 3 extra strong, rare earth magnets.
• 30° and 45° flat edge tips to measure and transfer angles.
• Durable D-ring for secure attachment.
• Thumb screw to lock on conduit and eliminate dog legs.
