Milwaukee 4 Inch IPS XL Ring for M18 FORCE LOGIC Long Throw Press Tool
Product Overview
The Milwaukee 4" IPS XL Ring is a heavy-duty press accessory designed for the M18™ FORCE LOGIC™ Long Throw Press Tool. Model 49-16-2658B, this ring is made for creating large-diameter press connections on 4-inch Iron Pipe Size (IPS) black iron pipe, specifically covering Schedule 10 through Schedule 40 applications.
Designed for use with Viega® MegaPress XL® press fittings, the IPS XL Ring provides an alternative to traditional welding for compatible steel piping installations. Its two-hinge construction helps the ring operate effectively in close quarters, while the in-line configuration of the M18 FORCE LOGIC Long Throw Press Tool provides improved access around installed piping.
The ring connects with Ring Jaw 2 and is designed to create a secure joint in one press cycle when used with the appropriate Milwaukee press tool, ring jaw, pipe, and compatible fitting system. Milwaukee also states that the IPS XL system can provide installation speeds of up to 90% faster than welding.

Designed for 4" IPS Steel Pipe
The 49-16-2658B is specifically sized for 4-inch Iron Pipe Size (IPS) applications. Unlike smaller press rings, this XL ring is intended for large-diameter steel piping and is designed around the requirements of compatible Viega MegaPress XL fittings.
Milwaukee specifies its IPS XL system for Schedule 10 through Schedule 40 black iron pipe. This makes the ring suitable for a range of commercial and mechanical piping installations where compatible press-fitting systems are specified.
Two-Hinge Design for Close-Quarter Work
Large pipe installations can leave limited room around the connection point. The 4" IPS XL Ring uses a 2-hinge configuration designed to make positioning and pressing more practical in close quarters.
When combined with the in-line M18 FORCE LOGIC Long Throw Press Tool, the system is designed to provide improved access around installed piping and within confined work areas.
Compatible with Ring Jaw 2
The ring is designed to be used with Milwaukee Ring Jaw 2, which connects directly to the M18 FORCE LOGIC Long Throw Press Tool. The ring and jaw work together as the mechanical interface required to press compatible 4" IPS XL fittings.
Ring Jaw 2 is not included with this individual ring unless purchased as part of a separate kit.
Milwaukee's 2-1/2"–4" IPS XL Ring Kit, for example, includes the 4" ring 49-16-2658B, 2-1/2" and 3" rings, Ring Jaw 2 49-16-2659S, and a carrying case.
Alternative to Welding
For compatible press-fitting systems, the IPS XL Ring offers an alternative to traditional welding. The pressing process provides a controlled, flameless connection method, which can help simplify installation where hot work is undesirable or impractical.
Milwaukee states that its IPS XL system can deliver installation speeds of up to 90% faster than welding. This is a manufacturer-stated performance claim rather than an independently verified installation time.
Secure Connections in One Cycle
The IPS XL system is designed to create a secure joint in one press cycle when the correct Milwaukee press tool, Ring Jaw 2, ring, pipe, and compatible fitting are used together.
Proper pipe preparation, fitting selection, ring positioning, and operation should always follow the fitting manufacturer's installation instructions and Milwaukee's applicable tool documentation.
Typical Applications
The Milwaukee 4" IPS XL Ring can be used for professional applications involving compatible large-diameter steel press-fitting systems, including:
Commercial plumbing
Mechanical piping
HVAC piping systems
Industrial piping installations
Building construction
Facility maintenance
Piping modifications
Large-diameter steel pipe connections
New installations and system upgrades
Projects where flameless connection methods are preferred
Compatibility
The Milwaukee 49-16-2658B 4" IPS XL Ring is designed for use with:
M18 FORCE LOGIC Long Throw Press Tool
Ring Jaw 2, model 49-16-2659S
Viega MegaPress XL press fittings
4" IPS black iron pipe
Compatible Schedule 10 through Schedule 40 applications
Important Compatibility Note
This product should not be confused with Milwaukee's 4" IPS-P Pivoting Press Ring, model 49-16-2658BX. Although both products are 4" IPS accessories for the M18 FORCE LOGIC Long Throw Press Tool, they are different ring designs and use different ring-jaw configurations.
The 49-16-2658B is the IPS XL / IPS-Pr2 ring, featuring a two-hinge design and compatibility with Ring Jaw 2. The 49-16-2658BX is the IPS-P Pivoting Ring, designed around the X6 Ring Jaw.
Always verify the ring, ring jaw, press tool, pipe specification, and fitting system before beginning an installation.

Why Choose the Milwaukee 4" IPS XL Ring?
