Wheeler Rex

Dwight D. Eisenhower was president, Sputnik was orbiting the earth, West Side Story made its debut on Broadway, the Milwaukee Braves won the World Series, and Wheeler Manufacturing was born with the invention of the chain-type snap cutter for cast iron and clay tile pipes. In 1957, it was revolutionary. Today, it is considered a must-have tool for all pipe professionals.

This innovative product was followed by several other industry firsts, such as cutters for glass tube, power bevelers for PVC pipes, power torque wrenches for soil pipe couplings, shut off tools for copper and poly pipes, sewer tapping machines, hydraulic pipe cutters, and more. Today, Wheeler-Rex offers a complete line of pipe tools for the piping professional.

But here’s what really sets Wheeler-Rex apart from other makers of tools. We know it’s more than just a tool. It’s your livelihood. It’s your reputation. It’s your mortgage. It’s your daughter’s dance lessons. You need tools as serious about your work as you are. You need Wheeler-Rex tools.

In 1988, Wheeler became part of the Rex Industries family. Rex Industries produces the highest quality and largest variety of pipe threading machines in the world. Rex has developed advanced threader features such as oiling through the die head, auto-open die heads, notch-type quick adjustments, and ball detent die location. The well-known Rex quality is backed up by the best warranty in the business.
