With the press revolution in full swing Z-Press by Zupper Tools is constantly evolving with the market. The market is demanding more types of press fittings, including valves and other types of connectors that aid the use of press. This would include a full range of gas approved M-Profile press fittings by the manufacturer Cupro-Fit. The gas fitting is different to a normal press fitting as the o-ring is HNBR and are BSI KME approved to EN1245-7 and are required to be used on EN1057 copper tube. It is also yellow in colour whereas the normal press fitting is black. This signifies that the press fitting market for copper, stainless steel and other pipe systems are satisfying increasingly more applications. These applications are now becoming widespread and not just because of the restrictions in some places of no hot works.

The applications for both tools are with fittings used on stainless steel tube, copper and plastic. It is used in heating, hot water, potable water and gas installations. This variety of possible installations has now been made even simpler and more effective with the introduction of Z-Press Angled M-profile jaws. These angled jaws are available for Z-press battery operated press tools now and require a different starting jaw adaptor which is included in the kit.
This kit then contains angled jaws in various sizes up to 35 mm and allows for a press to be possible at 180º. This allows the user to press close to a wall and in a tight space that might not be possible with a normal press jaw.
