The Feed Tap waterworks tool from Reed Manufacturing drills through PVC, polyethylene, cast iron and ductile iron pipe while under pressure using a corporation stop inserted into a service saddle. Compact design with an independent feed control allows the user to complete the tap using a drill for cast iron, ductile iron or polyethylene. Manual power is required for use on PVC, CPVC and similar plastic pipe. The independent feed control advances the shell cutter for tapping PVC pipe as recommended by the Uni-Bell PVC Pipe Association. Designed for use on plastic pipe only, the FTP2000UNIV kit relies on manual drilling operations using Reed PVC/PE shell cutters. The tool comes complete with all corporation adapters, shell cutters, shell cutter adapters, and a ratchet wrench with socket to cover 3/4- to 2-inch service lines in PVC and polyethylene. Each machine ships with a sturdy carrying case. 800-666-3691; www.reedmfgco.com/en/products/water-services-tools/feed-tap-drilling-machine
