Milwaukee M18 4-Inch IPS-Pr2 Press Ring – 49-16-2658B
Product Overview
The Milwaukee M18 4-Inch IPS-Pr2 Press Ring (49-16-2658B) is a heavy-duty press accessory designed for the M18 FORCE LOGIC™ Long Throw Press Tool. It provides a controlled, flameless method for making large-diameter steel and stainless-steel pipe connections, offering a faster alternative to traditional welding and threading.
Designed for 4-inch Iron Pipe Size (IPS) applications, the ring works with compatible ring jaws and press fittings to create secure connections in a single pressing cycle. Its two-hinge construction helps improve access around installed piping, making it particularly useful in mechanical rooms and other areas where working clearance is limited.
Key Features
4-Inch IPS Capacity – Designed for 4-inch Iron Pipe Size pipe applications.
For M18 FORCE LOGIC Long Throw Press Tool – Specifically engineered for use with Milwaukee's M18 FORCE LOGIC Long Throw platform.
2-Hinge Ring Design – Helps the ring fit around pipe where available clearance is limited.
Compatible with Ring Jaw 2 – Designed to work with the appropriate Milwaukee Ring Jaw 2 interface.
Secure One-Cycle Connections – The compatible jaw and ring system is designed to complete the connection in one pressing cycle.
Controlled, Flameless Installation – Provides an alternative to welding and other hot-work processes.
Lightweight In-Line Configuration – Designed to improve access around installed pipes and in tight spaces.
Durable Steel Construction – Built for repeated professional use.
Large-Diameter Pressing – Designed for demanding 4-inch pipe connection work.
Up to 90% Faster Than Welding – Milwaukee states that its M18 FORCE LOGIC Long Throw system can provide up to 90% faster installation than welding in applicable applications.
Designed for Large-Diameter Pipe Connections
The 49-16-2658B is designed for 4-inch IPS pipe, making it suitable for large-diameter piping work where conventional welding or threading can be time-consuming.
Milwaukee specifies the ring for pressing Schedule 5 through Schedule 40 black iron pipe and 304/316 stainless steel pipe when used with compatible press fittings and the appropriate M18 FORCE LOGIC Long Throw Press Tool.
Two-Hinge Design for Better Access
Large pipe connections can be difficult to access when piping has already been installed. The two-hinge ring design allows the ring to be positioned around the pipe while requiring less clearance than a conventional single-piece configuration.
When paired with the compatible ring jaw and M18 FORCE LOGIC Long Throw Press Tool, the in-line arrangement is intended to provide improved access around existing pipe and in confined work areas.
Controlled, Flameless Connections
The Milwaukee FORCE LOGIC system provides a mechanical alternative to traditional welding and threading. The 49-16-2658B press ring applies the required force through the compatible press tool and fitting system, creating the connection without an open flame.
This can make press installation particularly useful for projects where reducing hot-work requirements, setup time, or installation steps is important.
Compatible Press Fittings
The 4" IPS-Pr2 Press Ring is intended for use with compatible large-diameter press-fitting systems, including Viega MegaPress XL® and Apollo POWERPRESS fittings. Milwaukee also identifies the ring for use with other compatible press-fitting systems.
Always verify the fitting manufacturer's requirements and Milwaukee's current press-tool compatibility information before installation.
Required Ring Jaw
The 49-16-2658B is a press ring, not a complete press-tool system. It requires the appropriate Ring Jaw 2 to connect the ring to the M18 FORCE LOGIC Long Throw Press Tool.
Milwaukee's compatibility documentation identifies the 4" IPS-Pr2 ring as part of the M18 FORCE LOGIC accessory system.

Benefits for Professional Installers
Faster Installation
The FORCE LOGIC press system provides a mechanical installation method that can significantly reduce installation time compared with traditional welding in suitable applications. Milwaukee states that the system can deliver up to 90% faster installation than welding.
Better Access Around Existing Pipe
The two-hinge design and in-line configuration help installers position the ring around pipe in areas where access is restricted.
No Open Flame
Pressing eliminates the need for an open flame during the connection process, providing a controlled alternative to hot-work installation methods.
Built for Repeated Jobsite Use
The ring uses durable steel construction intended to withstand the demands of professional pipe installation.
Compatibility Note
Milwaukee offers several different 4-inch press rings for its M18 FORCE LOGIC system, including IPS, CTS-V, NIBCO-specific, and pivoting variants. These products are not interchangeable simply because they share a 4-inch size.
The 49-16-2658B is specifically the 4" IPS-Pr2 Press Ring for the M18 FORCE LOGIC Long Throw Press Tool. For copper or copper tube-sized applications, a CTS-V ring is required; for NIBCO-specific copper fittings, Milwaukee offers a separate NIBCO ring.
Always confirm the ring, ring jaw, press tool, pipe material, pipe size, and fitting system as a complete compatible combination before installation.
Why Choose the Milwaukee 49-16-2658B?
The Milwaukee M18 4" IPS-Pr2 Press Ring is designed for professionals who need an efficient way to make large-diameter steel and stainless-steel pipe connections without relying on conventional welding or threading. Its two-hinge design, durable steel construction, in-line configuration, and compatibility with the M18 FORCE LOGIC Long Throw system make it a practical accessory for demanding commercial and industrial piping work.
