5 of 5 Perfect March 27, 2021
Reviewer: RW from North Vancouver, BC Canada  
I used this to mount a 1.5 TC ferrule to my lid for the Steam slayer (which is excellent) and it did a great job. I’m glad I went ahead and did it this way.

5 of 5 Great tools! October 9, 2020
Reviewer: Nelson from Colorado  
I've installed 4 1/2" couplings, 4 1/2" pull-through bulkheads, and 3 1-1/2" TC ferrules, all quite successfully, using these tools.  They work great!

Then I tried replacing the weldless fittings (13/16" holes) in a keggle.  IMPORTANT - the directions say 13/16" to 7/8" for the pull-throughs BUT use the larger 7/8" hole for thicker pots.  PAY ATTENTION TO THAT INSTRUCTION!

I tried to force installing the pull-through.  Short version of the story, I bent the grade 5 bolt and partially stripped the bolt's threads.  I had to hacksaw the bolt head off to remove the tool - I couldn't get the nut off.


Lesson learned - for the keggle, use a 7/8" hole - AND - maybe upgrade your nut and bolt to grade 8.  And use some big wrenches (which is what got me in trouble and bent the bolt).

Great tools - other than the bent/stripped bolt (my own fault), the rest of the tool is undamaged and ready to rock and roll.

5 of 5 works as described December 26, 2019
Reviewer: Timothy Gibbs from Harriman, TN United States  
What can I say, other then, it works. tool is well thought out and no issues with the four 1/2" NPT fitting or the one 1.5" TC installed. First try, I was able to flare out and push through my TC fitting. have to go slow and make sure the flare tool is perfectly square in the opening. will upgrade the bolt from a grade 5 to a grade 8 or possibly stainless as the threads on the nut and bolt are seeing the wear from natural friction. Thanks for a great tool!!!

Reviewer: James Mayhugh from Las Vegas, NV United States  
I used the Pull Through Install Tool Combo for 1.5" TC Weld Ferrules in conjunction with Bobby's Carbide hole saw, and it was the fastest install I've ever done.

BRAVO!!

Reviewer: Anonymous Person from MA United States  
This tool worked great, no need to try making your own, Bobby already did the work.  Now my fittings look like a pro did them.  Fair shipping cost to.
