    I use them in an "emergency" when I have a leaking shut off on a job site so we don't flood a customers house but I always have the plumbers install a new shut off at the final part of the project. I have never tried them with air so I'm not sure how the seal would stand up to 90-120 psi. Not...

    I didn't watch the video, but, I would never use those crimp rings on a pex line...that could be why they are leaking. If you use the proper pex crimp rings (copper) and crimping pliers you won't have an issue. Just my .02

    That's an out of the ordinary experience for me. I've been in the home reno/building trade for close to 2 decades and other than an apprentice having a poor/ loose crimp I've never had a pex line leak at a connection.

    ER40 collet chuck

    That is correct. I tried (very gently, but firmly) and this is a pressed in bearing/spacer assembly. The temptation to put it in my hydraulic press and try was there, but I sat for a moment and decided against it. I have an email into a tech at King Canada. Apparently he is the go to guy...

    I'm sure in a short while I will be able to agree with you. But for now, we have a different classification of "fun"...LOL

    I looked at that when I originally was trying to turn metric threads and the center hub/bearing assembly would have to be pressed in and out of the gear in order to rotate it because there is a spacer that is part of the assembly. I'm presuming they wouldn't have designed it that way
