let's start with the big bertha the m18 fuel sectional sewer machine you can cordlessly power
the 32mm cable to clear roots up to 61 meters out from the unit featuring Milwaukee's cable
drive which both feeds and retracts the cable the thing i like about this is the fact that
it's all just run off battery so no need to run extension leads or worry if a clients home to gain
access to power the other thing i like about it is the fact that she's relatively light pretty easy
to lift it up into the back of toolboxes or utes this unit is designed to clear tough blockages in
51mm or 2-inch or up to 203 millimeter or 8-inch sewer the m12 airsnake is intended for clearing
soft blockages without the need to remove drain covers or fixtures it's really simple to use you
set your desired psi you then charge it up to that psi point it in the direction of the blockage
apply light pressure to avoid splashback and squeeze the trigger pro tip is to start low and
work your way up in increments of 10 psi it goes up to 50 psi for longer runs and it comes with a
range of plugs to suit whatever the application from toilets to sinks and drains if the blockage
is a bit more substantial then the m12 drain snake is great for up to 60 millimeter drain lines

in and out it comes with a 19 litre storage bucket for minimum messs to catch all of your drips and
it's got a 7.6 meter under core bulb head cable this big unit here is the m18 pipe threader
which is the first cordless pipe threader on the market and it features a whole raft with safety
features like the auto stop to prevent kickback combine that auto stop feature with a dedicated
support arm that's included with the tool and once you've got your thread started you can operate the
tool one-handed and use the other hand to work the lube it can thread up to a two-inch pipe and with
that narrow housing around the business end of the tool it means you can do it in situ as well if
the pipe's up against the wall or near a ceiling you can still get around it to thread it and
Milwaukee's got a huge range of cutting solutions for plumbers but the most popular of which has
to be the m12 fuel hacksaw this reciprocating saw is really versatile it's compact size means
you can get it up and under cabinets or down holes whatever you have to do with it you name
it combine that with a huge range of blades and accessories from milwaukee for this reciprocating
saw and the applications are too many to number but they've also got some really handy hand tool
cutting solutions as well at this 12-inch pvc abs saw as well as the pex chipping cutters which
are really handy they've got the manual copper tube cutters but if you do a lot of copper tube
you want to check out the m12 copper tube cutters they're really cool when it comes to joining those
pipes and tubing back together Milwaukee's got two options in the m12 and the m18 force logic press
tools now pressing is a lightning fast alternative to soldering with no flames and no heat and you
can work in wet and dry conditions whether you're joining copper or plastic you just mount the jaws
onto the fitting and it's sealed in seconds just hold the button down until the tool completes the
cycle at which point the joint will be connected securely if there's any issues the tool will let
you know Milwaukee's got a range of jaws for both presses they're really quick to change they're
also interchangeable with other systems of jaws as well i've linked milwaukee's compatibility
