Description

Virax M2X 20kN Cordless Press Machine with Mother Jaw, M15-22-28 Inserts & 2 Batteries UK - 990978

The Virax 990978 M2X Cordless Press Machine Kit is a compact 20kN electromechanical press tool designed for professional pipe installation work. Supplied with a mother jaw, M15-22-28 inserts, 2 batteries and UK charger, this kit gives plumbers and heating engineers a practical pressing solution for common pipe fitting sizes.

With its lightweight gun-shaped design, 360° rotating head and automatic piston return, the M2X is ideal for working in tight spaces, awkward installations and hard-to-reach pipework areas where control and manoeuvrability are essential.

Compact 20kN Press Tool for Professional Pipe Installations

The Virax M2X combines portability, speed and controlled crimping performance in a compact cordless format. Its microprocessor-controlled effort monitoring helps ensure safe and consistent pressing, while the circular LED ring provides clear visual feedback for crimp quality, battery condition and maintenance status.

The modular mother jaw and insert system helps reduce storage space and tool weight compared with carrying multiple standard jaws. Insert sets are quick to change, easy to transport and ideal for installers who need flexibility across different pipe sizes and fitting systems.

Key Features

  • 20kN cordless electromechanical press machine for professional pipe crimping and press fitting work
  • Supplied with mother jaw and M15-22-28 inserts for common pipe installation sizes
  • Compact gun-shaped M2X design for excellent handling in confined spaces
  • Automatic piston return for smooth, efficient operation after each press cycle
  • Microprocessor-controlled effort monitoring for safe and consistent crimping performance
  • Circular LED ring indicates crimp quality, battery status and maintenance alerts
  • 360° rotating head helps improve access around pipework and fittings
  • Soft Touch® anti-slip grip for comfortable handling during repeated use
  • Tool-free jaw and insert changes for faster setup on site
  • CAS Lithium-Ion battery platform for reliable cordless performance
  • Automatic shutdown helps save battery energy between operations
  • VIR-APP compatible for cycle monitoring, maintenance tracking and job reporting

Mother Jaw and Insert System

The included mother jaw system is designed to work with Virax inserts, giving users a compact and economical alternative to carrying multiple full-size crimping jaws. This helps reduce toolbox weight and saves space, especially for installers working with several pipe diameters or fitting profiles.

The mother jaw uses ball locking to provide a practical balance between secure insert retention and easy extraction, allowing insert sets to be swapped quickly as the job requires.

Ideal Applications

  • Plumbing and heating pipe installations
  • Press fitting and crimping work
  • Domestic and commercial pipework projects
  • Confined-space installation work
  • Maintenance, repair and refurbishment jobs
  • Professional use by plumbers, heating engineers and mechanical contractors
