Milwaukee Electric Tool, Uponor announce partnership
April 21st, 2010Milwaukee Electric Tool Corporation announced a new partnership with Uponor, a leading manufacturer and supplier of plumbing, fire sprinkler, and radiant heating and cooling systems. Fueled by the common passion of delivering increased productivity to plumbing and heating professionals, the companies have aligned to develop a comprehensive solution for installing Uponor’s ProPEX® fitting system.
Throughout its history, Milwaukee® has demonstrated an unwavering commitment to the trades with the introduction of products designed to increase productivity, including the Hole Hawg®, Super Hawg™, M12™ Cordless Copper Tubing Cutter, M12™ Cordless PVC Shear, M18™ Cordless Band Saw and Switchblade™ Selfeed Bits. Through this partnership, Milwaukee® will now add M12™ and M18™ ProPEX® Expansion Tools to their growing line of products designed for the plumbing and heating trades.
With Uponor’s continued support, the M12™ and M18™ ProPEX® Expansion Tools will launch later this year, offering features such as an auto-rotating head for accurate, one-handed expansion. The new tools will not only accelerate the speed in which users can install ProPEX® connections, they are also compatible with over 20 tools on their respective battery platforms.
Sharing a common core foundation, Milwaukee Electric Tool and Uponor will build this partnership to continually support the success of plumbing and heating professionals. Inspired by Uponor’s ProPEX® innovation and built with legendary Milwaukee® durability, the M12™ and M18™ ProPEX® Expansion Tools are both backed by a Heavy Duty, five-year warranty.
