The PEX Pusher

Running PEX pipe in tight spaces and during remodeling jobs can be a challenge, especially when faced with obstacles, restricted spaces, and pesky insulation. Introducing The PEX Pusher, the tool you didn't know you needed that makes your installation and remodeling processes smoother and more efficient.

I designed this for a remodeling job at my own house, where I had to route PEX pipes in a small closet, into a wall insert, down an enclosed wall, and into an insulated crawl space. The initial prototype was so helpful in that situation that I decided to optimize the design and make it available for professional and DIY plumbers everywhere.

This set is compatible with 1/2" and 3/4" PEX pipes. Each size includes interchangeable tips for different uses of the tool.

1. Blunt Tip: The rounded tip on the PEX Pusher simplifies feeding pipes through blind spots and maneuvering around tight spaces while preventing dirt and debris from entering the pipe.
2. Pointy Tip: Drilling through insulation with a spade bit just creates cotton candy and frustration. With the pointed insert, you can push your pipes right through without needing to drill, cut, or remove the insulation.

Designed to fit snugly in standard 1/2" and 3/4" PEX pipes. The red and blue tips are slightly larger than the black collar, and the collar is the same diameter as the pipe, so you can wrap a piece of tape around the collar and pipe for extra security.

The color-coding is less critical if you're using red and blue pipes, but when using non-color-coded pipes, it helps you keep track when you're on the other side of the wall. Plus, it just looks good.
