Milwaukee Introduces World's First Cordless Roll Groovers

Showcasing their continued commitment to driving disruptive innovation for the professional trades, Milwaukee Tool unveils their new M18 FUEL* RINGER Roll Groovers, the world’s first cordless, powered roll groover. Uniquely designed for grooving pipes in new construction and service, the M18 FUEL RINGER delivers the easiest and most productive way to groove 1 ¼”-6” pipes. Standing up to the demands of a day on the jobsite, the M18 FUEL RINGER Roll Groover for 1-1/4” - 4” Sch 10/40, 6” Sch 10 is optimized for professional sprinkler fitters, while the M18 FUEL RINGER Roll Groover for 2” – 6” Sch 10/40 addresses the capacity needs of the pipe fitting professional. Maximizing productivity of on-site grooving, these roll groovers deliver the fastest setup to finish and the easiest transportation around the jobsite.

“Spending hundreds of hours on jobsites, it became clear that all existing grooving tools introduced multiple set up, transportation, and grooving process inefficiencies”, explains John Karl Jarzombek, Senior Product Marketing Manager at Milwaukee Tool. “With this understanding, we set out to not just design an alternative solution to manual and powered grooving methods, but to reinvent the professional’s on-site workflow. Through a rigorous research and design process, along with the integration of advanced technology, the M18 FUEL RINGER is reshaping productivity and safety expectations for roll grooving through improved accuracy control, portability, and performance.”

As the industry’s first cordless solution, the new M18 FUEL RINGER Roll Groover delivers the fastest setup to finish workflow for grooving pipe onsite. Eliminating the limitations of a cord, the M18 FUEL RINGER’s compact design allows users to easily store the solution in their job box or truck and transport straight to their point of installation. With quick set up, users are provided with the ability to work wherever it is most convenient.

The Milwaukee M18 FUEL RINGER provides unmatched precision through advanced technology and straightforward controls, making this the easiest way to groove on-site. Taking direction from the operator and automating the grooving process, the M18 FUEL RINGER eliminates ratcheting and cranking. The integrated control panel enables the operator to select pipe type, schedule, and size. Operators can also adjust groove depth using the groove depth offset dial to tune the roll groover to the specific pipe batch they are working on and complete the process with repeated accuracy. This simple operation is a revolution in control and accuracy, while reducing muscle effort compared to today’s solutions by enabling users to achieve in-spec grooves hands free.

Milwaukee's new roll groover also delivers the run time required by professionals. The M18 FUEL RINGER Roll Groover for 1-1/4” - 4” Sch 10/40, 6” Sch 10 (2927-22) provides up to 50 2.5”” Sch 10 grooves per charge while the M18 FUEL RINGER for 2” – 6” Sch 10/40 (2928-22) features up to 25 3” Sch 40 grooves per charge. Delivering the runtime needed for even the hardest workdays and eliminating downtime, this solution enables operators to work all day.

Milwaukee is committed to improving productivity by providing performance-driven and trade-focused solutions so users can perform an entire day's work on one battery system. The MFUEL RINGER Roll Groover is fully compatible with the entire M18 line, now offering more than 275 solutions.

*M18 FUEL is engineered for the most demanding tradesmen in the world. Delivering unrivaled performance, all M18 FUEL products feature three Milwaukee-exclusive innovations—The POWERSTATE Brushless Motor, REDLITHIUM Battery Pack and REDLINK PLUS Intelligence Hardware and Software—that deliver unmatched power, run-time and durability on the jobsite. Simply put, M18 FUEL tools are the most powerful 18V cordless tools in their class.
