Milwaukee Tool and Uponor® will begin transforming commercial jobsites this fall with the introduction of the industry’s first expandable 75 mm PE-Xa and the only tool on the market that can expand it, the M18™ FORCELOGIC™ Expansion Tool.

WITH AND ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED, POWERFUL 100 kN HYDRAULIC MECHANISM, THE TOOL EXPANDS, ROTATES AND RESETS AUTOMATICALLY.

“Always on the lookout for solutions that provide a competitive advantage in their market, Pros turn to PE-Xa in residential applications due to its cost savings in material and install,” says Jochen Herterrich, Sr. Product Manager for Milwaukee Tool. “Until now, its use in commercial has been limited due to tubing size and installation tooling. We are proud to partner with Uponor® to deliver a solution that will make larger diameter PE-Xa a compelling solution for commercial system installations.”
