Milwaukee 49-16-2461mx Acr Pivoting Press Ring Kit

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE 49-16-2461mx is a Streamline ACR Pivoting Press Ring Kit designed for making flameless press connections on copper tubing in sizes from 1/4 inch through 7/8 inch. The pivoting ring design provides greater access in confined spaces compared to fixed-ring alternatives, making it a practical replacement for sweat and solder methods on ACR copper lines. Compatible with Milwaukee Ring Jaws and FORCE LOGIC Press Tools, the kit includes a press blocking system that prevents ring and ring jaw mismatches. HVAC technicians and refrigeration mechanics use this kit to produce consistent, controlled copper connections without open flame.

This press ring kit is suited for residential and light commercial HVAC and refrigeration work where copper ACR tubing connections are required. The pivoting functionality is especially useful in tight mechanical rooms, wall cavities, and equipment platforms where straight-on tool access is limited. When used with a compatible Milwaukee Ring Jaw and an M12 or M18 FORCE LOGIC Press Tool, the rings deliver repeatable, flameless connections that eliminate the need for brazing permits or fire watches in many jurisdictions.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or refrigeration mechanic familiar with ACR copper tubing systems. Verify that the correct ring jaw is matched to the ring size before pressing, and confirm the press blocking indicator is cleared before completing the connection. Follow applicable mechanical codes and manufacturer guidelines for inspection of pressed joints prior to system pressurization. Do not use press connections on tubing that is damaged, out-of-round, or improperly deburred.
