Plumbers can perfect pipe-work with award-winning tool
Plumbing and heating students have the opportunity to maximise their pipe-cutting know-how with tips from specialists in the industry.
According to representatives for Kopex International, its professional pipe tools make copper pipe-cutting "easy", saving both time and effort.
"With a simple twist of the wrist, the automatically adjusting tool provides a clean cut-through for various sizes of copper piping," said a Kopex spokesperson of the Corgi-recognised Pipeslice.
The Pipe-Prep, also a Corgi winner, is used to prepare copper pipe ends, flattening and smoothing rather than cutting off burrs, reports Buildingtalk.
Plumbing professionals have verified that the Pipe-prep "maintains the integrity of the material" while also producing the right shape for subsequent joining.
Furthermore, it is said to remove oxidisation - a common cause of pipe joint failures - making it easier and quicker to achieve sound joints.
The device's smoothing of a cut copper pipe also removes any sharp edges, thereby reducing the problem of restricted flow.
Earlier this month, Midlands firm Turner Plumbing Services affirmed that Kopex Pipeslice and Pipe-prep professional pipe tools are "amongst the most important items" used during a typical day's plumbing work, including emergency repair work, boiler replacement and installation services.
