Milwaukee 4 Inch CTS-V Pivoting Press Ring for M18 FORCE LOGIC Press Tools
Product Overview
The Milwaukee 4" CTS-V Pivoting Press Ring is a professional press-fitting accessory designed for use with M18™ FORCE LOGIC™ Press Tools. Model 49-16-2658X, it is intended for making compatible press connections on 4-inch copper and copper tube-sized (CTS) stainless steel pipe.
Its pivoting design helps provide better access when working around installed piping or in confined areas. When paired with the appropriate X5 Ring Jaw and an M18 FORCE LOGIC Press Tool, the ring can be positioned more effectively in tight applications while maintaining a controlled pressing process.
The CTS-V ring provides an alternative to traditional sweat and solder methods for compatible press-fitting systems. It is designed for use with major fitting brands, including Viega ProPress and ApolloPress, making it suitable for a wide range of professional plumbing and mechanical applications.

Specifications above are based on Milwaukee's current product listing and supporting retailer information.
Improved Access in Tight Spaces
Working around existing pipe can make large press connections difficult, particularly when there is limited clearance for positioning the press tool. The pivoting interface of the 4" CTS-V ring is designed to address this challenge by providing greater flexibility when positioning the ring.
When used with the appropriate X5 Ring Jaw and M18 FORCE LOGIC Press Tool, the pivoting configuration is intended to make connections around installed piping and in restricted work areas easier to access.
Designed for Copper and CTS Stainless Steel
The CTS-V designation identifies this ring as part of Milwaukee's copper and copper tube-sized stainless steel press-fitting system. It is designed for compatible 4-inch copper and CTS stainless steel pipe connections, rather than the larger IPS pipe applications served by Milwaukee's separate IPS-P press rings.
This distinction is important when selecting a press ring. The 49-16-2658X is the CTS-V version and should be matched with fittings and pipe sizes specified for the CTS-V system.
Press-Blocking System
Milwaukee incorporates a press-blocking system into the CTS-V ring design. The system is intended to help prevent an improper ring and ring-jaw pairing, reducing the chance of selecting an incompatible combination before beginning a press cycle.
The ring and compatible ring jaw are designed to work together as part of the M18 FORCE LOGIC pressing system, so users should always verify the current Milwaukee compatibility information before installation.
Spring-Loaded and Easy-Opening Design
Positioning a large press ring around a fitting can be challenging in confined areas. The spring-loaded construction helps the ring align with the fitting, while the easy-opening design is intended to make handling more convenient.
These features can be particularly useful for professional installers performing repeated connections throughout a project.
Alternative to Sweat and Solder
For compatible copper and CTS stainless steel press-fitting systems, the Milwaukee 4" CTS-V Pivoting Press Ring provides a controlled, flameless connection method as an alternative to conventional sweat and solder techniques.
This can be advantageous on projects where eliminating open-flame work helps simplify the installation process. The actual connection must still be performed according to the fitting manufacturer's requirements and the applicable installation procedures.
Typical Applications
The Milwaukee 4" CTS-V Pivoting Press Ring is suitable for professional applications such as:
Commercial plumbing installations
Mechanical piping systems
Copper pipe installations
CTS stainless steel pipe installations
HVAC and mechanical work
Building maintenance
Piping repairs and modifications
Installed-pipe connections
Tight-access press-fitting applications
New construction and renovation projects
Compatibility
The 49-16-2658X is designed for:
M18 FORCE LOGIC Press Tools
X5 Ring Jaw
4" copper press-fitting applications
4" copper tube-sized (CTS) stainless steel press-fitting applications
Major compatible fitting systems such as Viega ProPress and ApolloPress
Important Compatibility Note
This product is not the same as Milwaukee's 4" IPS-P Pivoting Press Ring. The CTS-V model 49-16-2658X is intended for copper and CTS stainless steel applications, while the IPS-P series is designed for different pipe and fitting systems.
Always confirm the pipe material, nominal size, fitting system, ring jaw, and press-tool compatibility before use.
Package Contents
1 × Milwaukee 4" CTS-V Pivoting Press Ring
