RIDGID Introduces First In-Line Standard Press Tool

RIDGID introduces the RP 351, its first in-line standard press tool. Engineered from the ground up, the RP 351 delivers reliability and efficiency, operates with an advanced brushless motor and requires no scheduled maintenance; its SlimGrip handle weighs about eight pounds with battery. It joins the recently introduced RIDGID RP 350 Press Tool, a drill grip standard press tool to help professionals get more done on every job with less fatigue and no time outs. Together, the long-running press tools are built for the most demanding situations and give professionals maximum standard press tool versatility on the jobsite. Both tools are ideal for making connections on carbon steel, copper, PEX and stainless steel pipe on residential, commercial and industrial jobs.

The 360 degree swivel feature of the RP 350 and RP 351 is an industry-first that comes paired with brightest-in-class LED lights to let users access tight spaces, plus see them more clearly in low- and no-light applications. Both tools are compatible with the full line of RIDGID standard series jaws and rings.
