I am asking for information on whether or not the older Ridgid Propress 320e press tool is compatible with press fitting manufactures such as veiga, Apollo press/Elkhart , Nibco. I have used this tool with all of the listed manufactures and only had a 1 1/4 Legend brand ball valve fail a pneumatic test . I as looking over the paper work and it does not state that any one brand has to used.

Thank you.

    I have a 340 and I've used it on Apollo, Viega, Jomar and a host of others. No problems.

    Up to 2" the fittings are compatible. 21/2" and up, need to stay with the brands. Ridged jaws to veiga fittings, nipco to nipco.....
