  • Removes pipe from solvent-welded fittings quickly

  • Designed for 1/2 in Schedule 40 IPS piping
  • Lightweight tool weighs only .45 lb

Purpose and User

The Wheeler-Rex 19050 IPS Fitting Saver is a specialised plumbing tool designed to extract half-inch Schedule 40 pipe from solvent-welded fittings. It targets irrigation and sprinkler contractors as well as professional plumbers who need to salvage fittings instead of replacing entire assemblies during repairs or renovations.

Build Integration

The tool mounts in a standard three-eighths-inch drill chuck, allowing it to be driven by a common power drill already present on most job sites. By removing pipe cleanly from the fitting interior, it frees the installer from cutting out and re-gluing whole sections, reducing both material waste and labour time on retrofit projects.

Sustained Operation

Weighing 0.45 lb, the lightweight steel body minimises operator fatigue during repetitive fitting-recovery tasks throughout a workday. Its simple mechanical cutting action delivers consistent performance without the overheating or battery-drain concerns that can affect powered pipe-cutting alternatives during extended use.

Questions about this item

How long can the 0.45 lb IPS Fitting Saver run continuously before the 3/8 inch drill chuck overheats?

The tool itself has no motor or thermal limit; sustained runtime depends entirely on the drill you attach to the 3/8 inch chuck.

What noise level and vibration should I expect when the fitting saver operates all day on Schedule 40 pipe?

The fitting saver adds minimal mechanical noise; overall sound and vibration are determined by the drill motor and the pipe material being cut.

Which drill must I already own to use the 1/2 inch Schedule 40 fitting saver?

Any drill with a standard 3/8 inch chuck will accept the fitting saver and provide the required rotation.
