Easy-Cut Multipurpose Pipe, Tube, and Hose Cutters

Ratchet action increases leverage to cut through hose, soft rubber tubing, or plastic pipe.

Cutters for use only on polyethylene and rubber have a pistol grip that makes cutting quick and comfortable.

Multipurpose Pipe, Tube, and Hose Cutters

Cut plastic and rubber pipe, tubing, and hose.

Spring-action cutters have jaws that open automatically when you release the handles.

Cutters with steel blades have a slippery PTFE coating that helps the blade smoothly cut soft plastic and rubber. However, it will scrape off if used on harder material such as PVC pipe.

Cutters with stainless steel blades stay sharp longer than coated blades when cutting hard material. Because they are uncoated, you’ll feel more resistance when cutting.

Plastic Tube Cutters

Make cuts in most rigid plastic tubing. Rollers have a groove for clearance to cut flared tube ends with little material loss. An enclosed adjustment screw prevents damage from chips and debris.

Socket-Saving Plastic Pipe Extractors

Step 1: Cut pipe flush to fitting.

Step 2: Drill to remove existing pipe.

Drill old pipe stubs out of fittings when replacing plastic pipe. These extractors let you reuse difficult-to-remove fittings, such as those in concrete floors, and install new pipe. Attach them to a square-drive power drill. Use the washer on the tip of these extractors to guide them down the center of pipe stubs. The cutter is sized to match the ID of your pipe fitting, so the blades remove all of the pipe and none of the fitting. The blades are angled to propel chips backwards so you don’t have to fish them out.
