This is an excellent tool for cutting tubing in tight spaces. I use it for copper, aluminum, brass, and plastic pipes, and it works flawlessly. It has a smooth and precise cutting action, and the knurled knob allows me to adjust the pressure easily. The rollers have grooves for close-to-flare cuts, which is very handy. The cutter is also very durable and lightweight, and it comes with a spare cutter wheel in the knob. I have used other tubing cutters before, but this one is by far the best. It is well worth the price and deserves five stars! ????
Some of the features that make this tool stand out are:
It has a 1/4-inch to 1-1/8-inch cutting capacity and can cut through various metal types such as hard and soft copper, aluminum, brass, and plastic tubing, making it a versatile pipe cutter tool that’s a must-have for any plumber’s toolbox.
It has a strong yet lightweight slide and wheel housing for long-lasting durability, and a large knurled feed screw knob that gives easy control of cutting pressure for clean cuts.
It has rollers that include grooves for close-to-flare cuts, which are ideal for working in restricted spaces and on small diameter metal surfaces.
It has a spare cutter wheel that helps you get more out of this tool and ensures maximum uptime, so your tool is always ready to go.
It has a 10-year shelf life and is certified by RoHS, which means it is free of harmful substances and environmentally friendly.
