Manual pipe cutter AWTools AW31560 — lightweight 500 g cutting tool for pipes is a compact hand-operated cutter designed for precise trimming and length adjustment of pipes. Constructed from steel and high-strength aluminium alloy with a powder-coated finish, this cutter combines durability with portability. Its ergonomic, non-slip knurled handle and integrated angle scale support controlled operation on site. The tool is intended for cutting and shaping metal and plastic pipes; confirm material compatibility before use.

Advantages

The AWTools AW31560 offers a lightweight design (approximately 500 g) that reduces fatigue during extended use and improves portability for fieldwork. The steel and high-strength aluminium alloy construction with a powder-coated finish provides corrosion resistance and long-term mechanical stability. An ergonomic non-slip knurled handle ensures a secure grip, while the integrated angle scale enables precise angle setting for accurate cuts and bends. The manual cutting mechanism allows controlled, tool-guided operations without the need for power sources.

Suitable for

• Plumbing installations and pipe maintenance
• On-site construction and installation work
• HVAC and air conditioner line installation
• Brake line and vehicle repair tasks
• Manufacturing and shipping where portable pipe cutting is needed

Key specifications

• Weight: approximately 500 g
• Materials: steel and high-strength aluminium alloy with powder-coated finish
• Handle: ergonomic, non-slip, knurled design
• Angle range for bending: 0° to 180° without damaging the pipe
• Designed materials: copper, brass, aluminium and soft steel pipes (verify compatibility)
• Operation: manual cutting mechanism, portable and power-free

How to use

Position the pipe securely within the cutter and align the cutting edge at the desired cutting mark or set the angle using the integrated angle scale. Hold the ergonomic knurled handle firmly to prevent slipping, and apply steady manual force to operate the cutting mechanism. For bending tasks, adjust the tool to the required angle within the 0°–180° range and bend gradually to avoid over-stressing the pipe. After cutting or bending, deburr edges as needed to ensure a clean finish and proper fit with fittings.

Usage recommendations

Always verify the tool's compatibility with the pipe material before use and wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and eye protection. For best results, secure the pipe to prevent movement, make incremental cuts or bends, and inspect the tool for wear or damage regularly. Store the cutter in a dry place to preserve the powder-coated finish and prevent corrosion.
