Olive Puller Brass Pipe Olive Tool Fitting Thread Remover 1/2'' & 3/4'' Ferrule Sleeve Puller Tool for Copper Pipe

**** The Bolaxin Olive Puller is a brass pipe olive tool designed for removing ferrule sleeves from both 1/2" and 3/4" pipes, embodying a blend of aesthetic appeal and functionality. Customers have overwhelmingly praised its high quality and sturdy Construction, made from well-machined polished brass that promises durability. The tool's compact size—about half the length of other olive pullers—makes it particularly advantageous for use in tight spaces. A notable feature is its precision design, including clean, deep threads that are essential for effective gripping. The threaded cap allows for the handle to be locked in a desired position, a thoughtful addition for enhanced usability. Many users reported that the tool performs exceptional in removing olives smoothly, making tasks like replacement of compression fittings easier and less damaging to pipes. However, there are downsides that limit its effectiveness for some users. A significant point of contention is that the tool’s threads are tapered rather than compression, which does not align with standard U.S. fittings. This discrepancy results in a limited engagement on the threads, leading to complaints about potential stripping. Moreover, the 3/4” adapter has been noted to be undersized, preventing proper fit on many pipes, while the lack of a plunger or stop for this size further complicates its use. In conclusion, the Bolaxin Olive Puller is a beautiful, well-Constructed tool that certainly enhances the ease of work in specific situations. However, potential buyers should be aware of the specific thread incompatibilities that could hinder its practicality depending on the plumbing scenario. **
