Detailed Review
The iCrimp PC-CRP1096 PEX Crimping Tool Kit provides a complete setup for connecting PEX tubing to fittings. It is built for anyone tackling plumbing installations or repairs who needs reliable connections across standard residential pipe sizes.
The core of the kit is the patented CRP-1096 cinch clamp tool, which uniquely combines clamping and clamp-removal functions in one body. This dual capability allows you to secure stainless steel clamp rings onto brass or poly PEX barb fittings and also remove them so you can re-use your fittings if adjustments are needed. The tool handles clamp sizes from 3/8-inch up to 1-inch and meets the ASTM F2098 standard.
Alongside the main cinch tool, the 33-piece set includes a PEX pipe cutter capable of handling tubing up to 1 inch, a handy carrying case, and 30 corrosion-resistant, NSF-certified clamp rings (twenty 1/2-inch and ten 3/4-inch rings). However, keep in mind that while the tool accommodates 3/8-inch, 5/8-inch, and 1-inch clamps, rings for those specific sizes are not supplied in the box.
Verdict: This versatile kit is an excellent, practical choice for plumbing jobs involving stainless steel PEX pinch clamps. Its dual install-and-remove design and bundled tubing cutter give you everything you need to start making secure connections right away.
