The Reed’s Feed Tap Machine from Reed Manufacturing drills through PVC, PE, cast iron and ductile iron pipe while under pressure using a corporation stop inserted into a service saddle. The compact design, with a separate, independent feed control for advancing the heavy-duty shell cutter into the pipe, allows the user to easily complete the tap using an electric or cordless drill, right -angle drill for cast and ductile iron, or a 7/16-inch wrench with manual power for plastics. The independent feed control advances the shell cutter for tapping PVC pipe as recommended by Uni-Bell PVC Pipe Association. The kit contains both a coupon-retaining drill bit and two sets of coupon-retaining magnets ideal for ductile iron taps. It comes with all adapters, shell cutters, shell cutter adapters and a ratchet wrench with socket to cover 3/4- to 2-inch services in PVC and PE, and a sturdy carrying case. 800/666-3691; www.reedmfgco.com
