Used to cut plastic / metal / concrete pipes and tubes into parts of desired lengths. Feature a hydraulic pump for exerting large amount of force and a chain for exhibiting squeeze & pop action around the pipe while pumping. Capable of generating pressures up to 9700 PSI
Wheeler-Rex catalogue includes a comprehensive line of pipe cutters, threading, grooving tools, pumps, vises, fire-hose testers, shut-off tools, drilling & tapping tools and wrenches. The brand's hydrostatic test pumps are used to measure the strength of pressure vessels, pipelines, plumbing lines and sprinkler systems by applying pressure above their operating level. They have a flow rate of 10 GPM and feature glycerine-filled gauges to withstand high-temperature fluids, ensuring long service life. Wheeler-Rex hydraulic pipe cutters have forged steel jaws and hardened steel chains for structural rigidity and durability. These pipe cutters have a working pressure ranging from 900 to 9000 PSI and an oil capacity of 1 quartz.
Some Wheeler-Rex MPNs cross individual references to the equivalent RIDGID, Westward and Apollo model numbers. So, if you're looking for a competitor item that is either out of stock or obsolete, chances are Raptor Supplies has the equivalent Wheeler-Rex products available.

To select the appropriate Wheeler-Rex hydrostatic test pump, several factors, such as maximum pressure, flow rate, required system size and discharge hose length, need to be considered.
These hydrostatic test pumps should be linked to a water source and the discharge hose must be attached to the system being tested. Turn on the pump and adjust the pressure with the regulator valve. For each hydrostatic test pump model, Wheeler-Rex provides installation and operation instructions.
Wheeler-Rex fire-hose testers are created to evaluate the effectiveness and consistency of fire hoses employed in firefighting activities. These testers use water to increase the pressure in the hose to a specified level and verify for any leakage or other issues.
These Wheeler-Rex hydraulic pipe cutters have low maintenance requirements. Users should inspect the cutting blades regularly and replace them when necessary. Check for leaks and the hydraulic fluid should be changed periodically.
