Purchased this because I service pool equipment. Well, it got me out of a few binds already! Works well with my cordless drill on high speed.This tool will save you $ on fittings, valves etc. I highly recommend this if your a tech.

This reamer worked great. Easy to use and saved me a lot of time and money. Used when remodeling and working on PVC that was in basement floor. The old connection was at the floor level. I was able to cut the pipe and ream it for a new connection. This was my last chance before I would have to cut the concrete. Tips: practice on an old connection first; go slow and as level as possible. Note that since this cutting tool is so thick, once you get a good start, it provides an even cut all the way around. Stop every 10 seconds or so to check the ream and pull up the shavings, especially with a vertical pipe I did not want them to fall in. Shop vac helped to keep it clean. 6 stars if I could give it. You will not use often but a great tool worth the money for unique situations.

Tool is made very well. Tried it on a cutoff fitting to practice first. After spending 15 min and only drilling about half of the depth with very rough cutting surface, I checked youtube videos of how people use this tool and quickly realized that mine does not work the way it's supposed to. Apparently cutting edge was pretty dull. After rotating the blade to a different cutting edge (there are 4 of them), tool worked perfectly - took just several minutes to ream the ABS vanity fitting and final hole was like new - perfect, smooth surface and very tight fit.Some recommendations:- for smaller size fittings (like 1 1/2" pipe) make sure to secure fitting as you do need to push this tool and pipes of this size may not be strong enough- higher RPM seems to work better (at least for 1 1/2" fitting) and produce less vibration but do make a tool hot (still should be OK to do 1 fitting without letting it cool down)- if you want every last piece of pipe drilled out, make sure to switch to low speed (if you use multi speed or variable speed drill) and reduce pressure once you have about 1/8" of pipe leftSo to summarize this - very quality made tool and works very well for what is was designed for but quality control at this price point should be much better.

I have been a professional landscape contractor since 1977, and am an expert in irrigation and irrigation repair. If you are wondering if this tool will work to remove a broken pipe from a fitting, I can attest that it will work fantastically. Don't buy the cheap ones - I have used them all. Spend the extra money and buy this one. It is very good quality and works perfectly if you do it right.Here are some tips from a pro.Cut the pipe flat across the fitting. I use a battery grinder with a metal cutting blade. This works great and is fast. A hacksaw will also work fine - just carefully cut it flat.The bit has a 3/8" shank which is very tight or may not even fit on some 3/8" drills. I got it to fit on my 3/8" Dewalt battery operated drill but it is a really tight fit. Use a 1/2" drill if you have one. My battery operated one works great but I always have 2-3 charged batteries on hand because the process will usually take longer than one battery can power. Avoid too much pressure while drilling out the pipe and use the low speed. Light pressure is best and take your time and hold the drill tightly and try not to let it wobble around. Brace it on your leg or shoe while drilling. Lubricate the bit with cold water! The bit will get hot and melt the plastic if not lubricated with water. It is better to cut than melt. Use a cold bottle of drinking water and dribble it on the bit periodically when cutting. This helps a lot and keeping it lubed and cool and makes all the difference. Frequently lift the bit in and out of the socket while cutting to keep the bit clean. Don't drill all the way through! Leave about 1/8-3/16 of an inch of the socket at the bottom so the pipe will stop when seating. This stops pressurized water from working it's way between the pipe and fitting over time. Use primer on both pipe and fitting prior to applying the glue. Use 711 GREY heavy body glue ONLY. This will fill gaps and is much stronger. It is best to wait 24 hours for the glue to fully set before pressurizing the line but this is not mandatory and you may be taking an unnecessary risk of it blowing out by doing so. This tool is guaranteed for 1000 reams but most of you will probably only use it once. I have used these tools for years and they are a godsend. Even if you only use it once, it will be worth twice the price and will save your hours of hard work. I highly recommend this tool. Good luck!

Saved my bacon. I had a cracked 90 degree elbow in my 1.5" abs drain pipe which connected to a 4" drain pipe in my basement floor. I was able to cut the 1.5" elbow where it entered the 4" drain and Reem out the pipe so that I could connect a new 90 degree elbow. The reamer worked through the old abs easily. In fact it worked so well that I felt as though there was not much torque being placed on the connection to the 4" pipe which was a major concern of mine. If I broke the 4" pipe I would have to break up the basement concrete floor to install a new one so failure was not an option. The one thing I noted was that after I finished reaming and test fitted the new elbow I noticed there was a slight amount of play. I went ahead and glued the pieces together anyway and it's now been over a week with baths, dishwasher use and draining kitchen sinks and not a drop anywhere.
