QRP-125 = The QRP-125 is primarily for installing 1-1/4" CTS fittings. If your company does not install 1-1/4" CTS pipe sizes, Lyall recommends using the QRP-100 tool for the listed sizes.



LycoRing® LycoRing® is a small plastic disposable ring that firmly grips the PE pipe while installing Lyall's leak-proof mechanical fittings. This new innovation is an option to using conventional clamps when installing LYCOFIT® Mechanical Fittings.
