Compact Metal Tube and Conduit Cutters

Cutter

Cutter with Autofeed Wheel

A small swing radius lets you cut tubing in tight spaces. All have an enclosed adjustment screw to prevent damage from chips and debris.

Cutters with grooved rollers give clearance for cutting flared tube ends with little material loss.

Tighten the knob just once on cutters with an autofeed cutter wheel, and the wheel will automatically cut through the rest of the tubing.

Attach ratchet handles to cutters to control tube cutting in 10-degree increments. Use them to make precise cuts, even in tight spaces where hands don’t fit comfortably.
