I have to do a re-plumb on my mobile home and plan on using PEX pipe. I don’t want to use the “gripper” type fittings. So I need several crimping tools: 3/4, 1/2 and maybe 3/8. At the home centers these tools run about $100 each. They look like a $20 pair of bolt cutters with different heads.
Does anyone know of a less expensive source of these tools? None of the rental companies have them. And I would like to keep some around for future changes or emergencies.
At this point I’m considering going with CPVC to do the job.
Any help out there?
Thanks, John
