This video demonstrates the process of repairing a damaged section of a 1-inch PEX pipe using specialized PEX expansion tools and fittings. The repair involves cutting out the damaged section, expanding the pipe ends, and then installing a new PEX coupling and expansion rings to create a secure, watertight connection. The video emphasizes the efficiency and reliability of using a Milwaukee PEX expander tool for this task.

That's some radiant. This is the Milwaukee PEX gun that them at Uponor came out with. We got a 1 in expansion head on it. We got a couple of 1-in expansion rings and a coupling. And there we go. Within 10 seconds, you're not going to be able to take that out. And now we can just pop that right in place. We'll just give that a couple more seconds. Have my friend turn the water back on.
