Pros & Cons
Pros
Used this for threading pipes for a natural gas install. Used it to thread the last section of 1 1/4” galvanized well pipe. Take your time and be sure to use a lubricant.
Very pleased with the quality and durability of the dies and ratcheting die holder. The set is more expensive than the one sold by harbor freight but that not a fair comparison.
Much thanks to sheila and david for giving me the correct way to remove the die. Especially to comment to man-up ( much smiles ).
Cons
Oil was applied to the pipe and die before started and reapplied often throughout the thread cutting process. The unit and design are fine but the cutters for the threads were worthless. Think it had gouge in cutter. Just save up and get yourself a qu... Read More
Don't buy this junk tool, the money you spend here goes right down the drain. I'm sure the big box store version (that's 6x the price) is a much nicer tool. Great price, but not a worthwhile tool.
It's truly one of the worst engineered tools i've ever had the displeasure to use. It's now un-usable. Dulled after a single use on 3/4 pipe. I was forced to disfigure this visible supply line in the bathroom.
Highlights
Quality
I have bought it for a long time and the quality is very satisfactory
I’m happy with the money spent compared to the convenience of cut my own pipe at home
If you were looking for commercial quality pony up more cash
I purchased this for a one use product
Price
I cant attest to longevity and given the price i would guess that it might not be suitable for daily use by a contractor
Competitiveness
I have worked with threaders before and experience helps a lot but for 30 you won’t beat this threader
Of course this isn’t a 500 threader so there was some play in the components
