SSP’s TurnPro hand tools

TurnPro hand tools SSP has launched the TurnPro ® line of hand tools, to support its distributor network with equipment to improve tube preparation and tube fitting installation.

TurnPro Ratchet Wrenches: the open- jaw easily slips on fittings, hex nuts and bolts. 12 pt ratchet action makes operating in tight spaces easier. Tools apply torque pressures evenly on flats reducing stripping and deformation. TurnPro Tube Cutter: cuts stainless steel and alloy tube up to 28mm (1 1 / 8 ") with precise, spiral-free cuts. The cutter features a compact 4 1 / 2 " swing radius and a retractable rotary- style reamer.

steel fixtures allow manual preswaging of tube fitting ferrules to tubing up to 1 / 2 ". TurnPro Reaming and De-burring Tool: a single tool for preparing tube ends ensures that tubing seats properly into tube fittings, eliminates flow obstruc- tions and removes burrs that could enter system. The Tungsten carbide blades for this tool have a lifetime warranty.

The range of hand tools includes:

TurnPro Indexing Handle Tube Bender: a patented, heavy-duty tool featuring a quick-action trigger release that eliminates crossed handles when making precise bends greater than 900, for faster and safer operations, especially in high- cycle tube bending of stainless steel, alloys and other hardened tubing.
