PEX Crimp Jaws for Novopress ACO153 Press Tools
Fitting the right PEX crimp jaw to your Novopress ACO153 press tool is essential — each PEX system uses a specific jaw profile, and jaws are not interchangeable between systems. At PlumbingSales.com.au, we stock genuine Novopress PEX press jaws across four jaw series, covering the most common PEX systems installed in Australian residential and commercial plumbing.
All jaws on this page are compatible exclusively with the Novopress ACO153 12V battery press tool. Browse our range online 24/7 and order with fast Australia-wide delivery from our Melbourne warehouse.
Understanding PEX Jaw Systems — Which Jaw Do You Need?
PEX crimp jaws are profile-specific, meaning the jaw must match the crimping profile of the PEX fitting system you're installing. Using the wrong jaw for a fitting system will not produce a compliant, watertight connection. We stock four jaw series, each engineered for a different system:
Elson EPS PEX Jaws
Designed for the Elson EPS PEX system — Elson's newer-generation PEX range for water reticulation. Available in 16mm, 20mm, 25mm and 32mm. If you're installing Elson EPS PEX pipe and fittings, these are the correct jaws for your ACO153 tool.
Elson BUSHPEX Crimp Jaws
Designed for the Elson BUSHPEX Crimp-On system — Elson's established PE-Xa PEX plumbing system using solid DR brass crimp fittings with stainless steel sleeves for hot and cold water reticulation. Available in 16mm, 20mm and 25mm (the BUSHPEX Crimp-On system covers this size range). If you're working with BUSHPEX Crimp-On pipe and fittings, these jaws are the correct match.
U-Profile PEX Crimp Jaws (U-Series)
U-profile pattern jaws designed for Couta and Rifeng F5 gas and water PEX crimp pipe and fittings. Available in 16mm, 20mm, 25mm and 32mm. Suitable for both gas and water PEX applications within these compatible systems. Not compatible with Elson EPS, BUSHPEX or KP-profile fitting systems.
KP-Profile PEX Crimp Jaws (KP-Series)
K-pattern jaws designed for Ezipex, Forza, Pro-fit and TradePex gas and water PEX crimp pipe and fittings. Available in 16mm, 20mm, 25mm and 32mm. Suitable for both gas and water PEX applications within these compatible systems. Not compatible with Elson EPS, BUSHPEX or U-profile fitting systems.

Choosing the Right PEX Press Jaw
Match the jaw to your fitting system, not just your pipe size. This is the most critical selection factor for PEX jaws. A 20mm jaw from one series will not correctly crimp a 20mm fitting from a different system. Before ordering, confirm:
- Which PEX fitting brand and system you're installing (Elson EPS, Elson BUSHPEX, Couta/Rifeng, Ezipex, Forza, Pro-fit, TradePex or similar)
- The pipe size or sizes you need to cover (16mm, 20mm, 25mm, 32mm)
- That you're using the Novopress ACO153 12V press tool — all jaws on this page are ACO153-only and are not compatible with other press tool models
If you need PEX jaws for a different Novopress tool model, or copper press jaws for the ACO153 or ACO203, browse our related tool accessory categories below.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are these PEX jaws compatible with the ACO203 press tool?
No. All PEX press jaws on this page are designed for the Novopress ACO153 12V battery press tool only. They are not compatible with the ACO203 or other Novopress tool models. Check individual product listings for compatibility details.
What's the difference between U-profile and KP-profile jaws?
Both are PEX crimp jaw profiles but they're designed for different fitting systems. U-profile jaws suit Couta and Rifeng F5 gas and water PEX systems. KP-profile jaws suit Ezipex, Forza, Pro-fit and TradePex gas and water PEX systems. They are not interchangeable — always match the jaw profile to your specific fitting brand.
Can BUSHPEX jaws be used with Elson EPS PEX fittings?
No. Elson EPS PEX and Elson BUSHPEX are separate systems with different crimping profiles. Each requires its own dedicated jaw series. Using the wrong jaw for a fitting system will not produce a compliant connection.
What sizes are available for each jaw series?
Elson EPS PEX jaws are available in 16mm, 20mm, 25mm and 32mm. Elson BUSHPEX jaws are available in 16mm, 20mm and 25mm. U-profile and KP-profile jaws are each available in 16mm, 20mm, 25mm and 32mm.
Are these jaws suitable for gas PEX applications?
U-profile (U-series) and KP-profile (KP-series) jaws are suitable for both gas and water PEX applications within their compatible fitting systems. Elson EPS and BUSHPEX jaws are for water PEX applications — confirm application suitability with your system supplier before use on gas systems.
