There are three sizes of heads included in the kit: 1/2, 3/4, and 1 inch are the three sizes available. A 3/8 inch head is not included in the package. It does, however, come with two batteries, a charger, and a carrying case. The tool and the kit are excellent.
Yes, but only the Milwaukee heads rotate, so they won't rotate.
The only heads included in a kit are 1/2, 3/4, and 1" inch heads.
That is not the case with the one I have.

There were two (3) included. There are no batteries required!.
They advised that I speak with the manufacturer. Covid19 has shut down production. After that, I hired a plumber and paid more money to have the plumbing fixed. This is an inconvenient situation; however, be cautious because they will not want to refund your money.
My home's steel plumbing was replaced with PEX A after it was 70 years old. Although there was a slight learning curve, the performance was spectacular. It was simple to follow the instructions and get everything set up correctly. 3/4" and 1/2" PEX A, as well as collars, were used. The tool's insertion into the PEX with the collar went without a hitch. Turn the tool 1/8 to 1/4 turn as the tubing expanded until it rested against the collar, holding the trigger as the head expands, then clicks back to start again. 7 - As stated in the instructions With 3/4" PEX, 8 clicks was precise; 1/2" required less. Then it's a race against time to get the PEX onto the fitting; I once put it on the wrong fitting, quickly pulled it off, and replaced it with the correct fitting. Every joint in your body is tense. There were no leaks when we turned on the water, and none of the PEX connections had failed. When I checked the next day, everything was still dry. My kitchen faucets now have normal water pressure. The rest of the equipment is in excellent working order. br>I'm glad I didn't use a manual expansion tool instead of this one. The Milwaukee Drill and Impact tool are already in my possession. br>It's a fantastic addition to the workshop.
PEX A fittings are what I prefer, and it appears that almost all of the plumbers in my area do as well. Any work on any of my three properties necessitates the use of an expander - Even for a small job, purchasing one was much less expensive than hiring a plumber. The construction appears to be sturdy, and I've had no problems with it; it's also incredibly simple to use, almost foolproof.
I replaced all of the galvanized pipework with pex pipe, which worked flawlessly and saved me time and money. I would recommend getting one of these tools to anyone who works in a cramped crawl space. I'm not a plumber, and I'm not going to pretend to be one. However, I am an upperclassman. I can't say enough good things about this tool; on a scale of one to ten, I'd rate it a 12!.
Unlike the manual types, this one has a long battery life and is easy to use in confined spaces. Tools for 1/2", 3/4", and 1" PEX types are included. A tubing. This was used to build a new bathroom and replace a water heater that had failed. Frequently, you will be working in confined spaces with difficult access to the PEX fitting. I'm so glad I went with this tool instead of a manual tool. Next, in my garage, I'm going to install a 1" compressed air distribution system. The same is appealing to a neighbor for his car-painting business. br> All of the pipes were 3/4" in diameter. I'm planning to install 1/2" PEX radiant heating in the near future. br>br>It's a bit pricey, but it's worth it.
This kit was recently purchased. One of the batteries was defective when it was delivered. Aside from that, it's a fantastic tool that does exactly what it's supposed to. Because of the battery issue, I gave it a three-star rating. Rather than dealing with the return, I'd rather buy a new battery. I obviously purchased the tool because I require it, so returning it for a new one with a potentially defective battery is not an option.
The best tool I've ever used for plumming repairs in small spaces, such as a motorhome. Using and finishing a job takes only a minute or two.
