Ya there excellent, be careful on the 4 inches to much tourk needed , I twisted the shank

Never saw one before. That looks like a big time saver for broken lines. 😁😎

I could have used that in my last remodel. I normally just to the score and pick at it method and it takes FOREVER. Thanks for the tool idea.

This would work great for pool pipes when they break. I always hated to remake sections because there were no easy ways to rebuild the bends.

@@MossEYE- , it’s not the pipes but the way it was put together . The chlorinator had 45s and straits and then and then went off to a split U underground. Each section had less than 1/4” of straight pipe to cut. You need more than that to repair. You end up have to dig and cut from underground. And after a couple of times it becomes annoying to replace . Then there was the section above the pump that went into the sand filter. Threaded and bent. If you don’t secure just right on either end, there is no going back after it cures. Redo it , or section it, or add a Union as I ended up doing.

I've never seen that kind but I have some that work amazing. I remember back in the day having to cut and chip the old pipe out. It was a nightmare lol

These are worth double the price of a regular one piece fitting saver , those reed ones will last soo much longer and plus anything that wears you can easily replace these are a must have for quick easy fixes like this one

Man I learn so much just watching you work. I want more content even if you think it’s banal. I bet there are gems you wouldn’t even think to include in an ordinary video. Thanks so much from an Indiana DIYer!

I use them have several on my service van the larger diameter put a strain on the cordless drill 3 inch and up I would recommend a corded drill hole hog type drill . Cordless will do it but it won’t be happy

This is the first time I have seen this exact one and it looks nice, blades are probably changeable. It looks a lot like a cutter for a shaper.

That thing is awesome. I have always wondered in spaces like this how to fix it, or if there was a way to drill and remove the old pipe and install a new one in its place without major wall surgery. Will definitely be getting some of those Reed pipe savers.

Yeah pruning blades are aggressive, maybe a metal blade with lots of teeth

Thx. As a Handyman myself. I'd definitely use one of these here and there.

That’s the best socket saver I’ve ever seen. So much better than the ones I have. Quality looks better. Nice.

Never mind the 1/4” of hub that was cut from your saw. 😂

Been a plumber for over 30 years and I have a different version of those. If I still wanted to work I would definitely switch to those. I wish I had them when I was doing it full time.

I wondered if something like this existed. Never heard of Reed. They got all kinds of toys.

Looks good! Way to go!

Reed makes the best Ram bits. The cheaper ones work ok, but not like Reed. Their super expensive, but you get what you pay for.

Man I just bought the kit! Fucking game changer! No more slowly heating that damn fitting and pealing away the pipe in a long stinking process! Thank you 🙏!!!

We all know how much they love a good, clean, extreme reaming out. Fantastic bit of kit, fully recommend.

Reed is by far the best and when you need ‘em you need ‘em. And they’re not cheap… Another tool that separates the pros from the hacks.

COOL - THANKS ! ! ! 🙂😎👍

Found to set on amazon with that same design, I have some of the reed ones, but these work just as good

I love that tool. I have it in 2" for pool plumbing repairs. I have saved $75 valves, and extra work by having one. I hate when I see multiple couplings in a straight piece of pipe. There was one job I did that literally had 4 couplings in a 2' straight section. One of those couplings was leaking. I cut it out, reamed the valve, and plumbed in a new section of pipe. The tool pays for itself in saved time.

That's a badaxx Reem drill. Good work! I just bought a milwaukee 12v hacksaw for cutting pipe out of fittings. Short throw and less aggressive then the 18v hacksaw.

That's a awesome looking ram bit.

I wished they had those fitting savers back when I was doing plumbing.

I run upon this every blue moon. I will stay with my Sawzall and screw driver

I'm not even a plumber and this has saved my booty twice now.

Maxicut gloves. Best ones ever

Shit I've been a plumber for 20 years and I had no idea reed made such a handy tool. I've been doing the saw Notch and two flat head screwdrivers to pop the old pipe out of a fitting. Ordering a set of these right bloody now. Thanks!

Where can I buy theses??? Links, please??

No frikin way! I always thought that would be a great invention

Sure beats cutting open the wall!

The right tool for the right job.

Tons of respect.

Me:If the blade is replaceable and it will cut, imma use it. Boss: where’s my 12 inch cutter gone.

Just a heads up to anyone who plans to get a set. The set is almost 400 US dollars. The full sets you see floating around for cheap are knock offs even if they say Reed. A friend of mine bought a cheap set and they are indeed cheaply made. You absolutely get what you pay for. I have the legit set from Reed with a few other sizes they offer. They work great. The larger ones require a little more torque from your drill but they will get the job done.

Wow thank you

Probably not the right blade for that but “who cares!” I loved that! Also, I wish they would have had a fitting saver like that back in the day. I’d have been opening the wall and tying in a new San tee. I enjoyed watching this. Thanks

Excellent tool.

What is this tool called?

I thought the must have a the Sawzall because it came out right after the statement haha

I was thinking you were going to take the adapter off and then you were cutting behind it and I was thinking NO!

Seems like every version of that you still have to take a blade and get that left overs outside the hub. Definitely works better than the raptor shit ones

What do u do when its the fitting that has failed? Like a 3/4” cpvc elbow? Oh its installed flush with a wall top plate too.

I bought that after watching a similar video. I don’t use it all the time, but it has more than paid for itself the times I have needed it. If you remodel bathrooms you will need this

Heat gun saved my sanitee that's 4x3x4 which connects to a 3x2x3. Saved me $50 about

That sir is dope!!!!

Super Tool!

I'm not even a plumber and i want one

I have ram bits, I like that set, will have to order some

That might be a good tool to have for running electrical in pvc conduit. There is nothing worse than gluing a fitting and realizing it isn't right ...as the glue is setting

Must have. I have those same sizes. Those things will save you big money. They are pricey tho. Worth every penny.

I love ram bits

Smart very smart

Better than the one I have

I didn’t see one for sch80. I’ve been using the Wheeler Rex fitting saver kit for it though.

Great tool

Just excellent

Nice

I have the 2” it’s a life saver. I gotta get the 1 1/2 though.

It’s the best

They work even better with a little water for lubrication

These work. Period. No ifs ands or buts. Don’t even try those other style ones (the one that looks like a broken fan blade on a shaft) , they are not only useless, and always damage the fitting you’re trying to save, they are downright dangerous. They tend to bite the pipe at the worst time and spin out and chew up your hand or anything else near it. Ask me how I know.

Awesome!

The parts house guy always tries to sell me this kit. The ram bits are a quarter of the cost and work just fine.

Clean ream extreme huh? I think I gave my wife one of those last night 😉😅

Rectorseal made this before Reed. It's called the "GoldenSeal". Although Reed's shank fits in a 1/2" chuck better. Rectorseal'S has to be ground down or machined to fit. Shank is way too big. Love the tool otherwise.

I'm not sure who made it first but I can say after owning both for years, REED's is a better reamer for sure. I've used every size from 1.5" to 4" and get a perfect fit every time.

I wish i knew about this 2weeks ago.. god it was a pain using a heat gun I’m an idiot smh.

Used one today lol

I just use my Heat Gun. Heat the fitting and pull it off. I only do this on drain lines never on a line that will be pressurized... It is quick easy and no mess...

Neat!

Does anyone know if they make a scheduled 80 version of this tool?

I just never understood why people plumb pipe and water lines so close to the walls. Atleast leave a couple inches extra for us future plumbers 😂
