Step 2
Slide the correct sized copper crimp ring over the end of the NIBCO
®
PEX pipe. Slide the ring approximately 2” past the end of the pipe.
Step 3
Push the fitting into the pipe until it touches the fitting shoulder. Position the crimp ring 1/8” - 1/4” from the end of the tube. This
distance ensures that the crimp ring is positioned directly over the ribs on the barb.
Step 4
Center the crimping tool jaws over the ring. Hold the tool at 90 degrees to the fitting and close the jaws completely. Crimp only one
time. If crimped more than once, you must cut out the connection and begin again at Step 1.
1/8” - 1/4”
The crimp ring should be positioned so the pipe is
forced into the ribs of the fitting.
