NIBCO Announces DEWALT Tool, Jaw Set for PressACR Fittings

NIBCO has announced its first-ever partnership with DEWALT on a 24kN tool and jaw kit that is designed to crimp NIBCO PressACR fittings. The tool has been optimized for one-handed use and the jaws have a gray galvanized coating to provide corrosion protection.

The products will be sold by DEWALT and include the following:

• A tool kit that consists of the press tool (DCE210D2), USB-C cable, shoulder strap, charger and two 20V MAX DCB203 2.0 Ah batteries.
• PressACR jaw kit (DCE214K) which includes one each of the following jaws sizes: One-quarter inch, three-eighths inch, one-half inch, five-eighths inch, three-quarters inch and seven-eighths inch.

PressACR end connections reduce installation time while the patented interior groove design and HNBR seal make them suitable for high pressure HVACR applications rated up to 700 psi. Made in Stuarts Draft, Virginia, of the highest quality, globally sourced pure copper, PressACR fittings meet stringent certification and compliance standards that support the higher-pressure requirements of HVACR systems.
