Product Description
Milwaukee 5/8 in. ProPEX Expansion Head for M12 Expansion Tool
Model Number: 49-16-2405
The Milwaukee 49-16-2405 is a 5/8 in. ProPEX Expansion Head for the Milwaukee M12 ProPEX Expansion Tool — the interchangeable expansion head for expanding PEX-A tubing at the 5/8 in. diameter for ProPEX fitting connections in PEX-A plumbing systems where the 5/8 in. tube size is specified. The 5/8 in. ProPEX connection size is used in specific radiant floor heating system designs, hydronic distribution circuits, and the plumbing configurations where 5/8 in. PEX-A tubing is specified for the flow capacity and system design requirements of the installation. The Milwaukee M12 expansion tool's battery-powered motor performs the expansion cycle consistently with each trigger actuation — expanding the PEX-A tubing end and its ProPEX ring for the thermal memory contraction that creates the watertight, code-compliant connection around the fitting body without the manual effort of hand expansion tools.
The 5/8 in. expansion head is interchangeable with other M12 ProPEX expansion head sizes — tool-free head changes allow the same M12 expansion tool to service all ProPEX connection sizes encountered on a project, from 3/8 in. through 1 in., without requiring separate tools for each size. Milwaukee manufactures the expansion head to the ProPEX system's dimensional requirements for the correct expansion diameter and depth that produces reliable, leak-free connections meeting plumbing code compliance requirements at the 5/8 in. specification. The M12 cordless platform provides practical advantages in the tight spaces of radiant heating manifold areas, floor cavity access, and the confined mechanical spaces of hydronic system installation and service work.
