WHEELER-REX IPS

Wheeler-Rex is a US-based manufacturer of pipe tools and equipment, with a product history that includes the development of the first plastic pipe fitting saver. The company's IPS (Iron Pipe Size) fitting saver line is designed to remove damaged plastic pipe from inside fittings without cutting the fitting, allowing the fitting to be reused. These tools are used in plumbing, irrigation, and other plastic pipe repair applications where preserving the fitting reduces material and labor costs. The IPS fitting savers are available in single-piece models for specific pipe diameters and in multi-piece kits covering a range of sizes. The single-piece models include the 19050 and 19051 for 1/2 in pipe, the 19075 and 19076 for 3/4 in pipe, and the 19100 and 19101 for 1 in pipe. The kits, such as the 19020 and 19025, are 3-piece sets that cover pipe diameters from 1/2 in to 1 in. These tools are intended for use with IPS plastic pipe, which is a common standard for water distribution, irrigation, and industrial piping systems. The fitting savers are mechanical tools that extract broken or damaged pipe sections from the fitting hub, eliminating the need to cut the fitting out of the line. This approach can save time and replacement parts during repair work. 3G Electric supplies the Wheeler-Rex IPS fitting saver line as part of its industrial equipment catalog. The product range includes multiple SKUs to accommodate different pipe sizes and user preferences for single tools or kits. 3G Electric provides global logistics support for these products, serving plant engineers, maintenance managers, and procurement specialists who require pipe repair tools for ongoing operations. The company's catalog includes technical specifications such as manufacturer part numbers and maximum pipe diameters to assist with selection. For buyers needing to maintain plastic pipe systems, the Wheeler-Rex IPS fitting savers offer a method to address damaged pipe sections while retaining the existing fitting. 3G Electric's role is to make these tools available through its distribution network, with the ability to ship worldwide. The product line is part of a broader offering of industrial burners, pumps, gas controls, and related equipment, though the Wheeler-Rex IPS fitting savers specifically address plastic pipe repair needs. The tools are manufactured by Wheeler-Rex, a company with a history in pipe tool manufacturing, and are supplied by 3G Electric to support maintenance and repair operations across various industries.
