Key specifications

• Maximum cutting capacity: up to 42 mm outer diameter

How to use

Place the pipe cutter around the plastic tube at the desired cutting point and ensure the tube is seated fully against the cutter’s cutting surface. Squeeze the handles smoothly with one hand to bring the blade through the tubing; for thicker sections make successive, steady squeezes rather than forcing a single stroke. After cutting, release the handles and engage the locking mechanism to secure the tool for storage. Regular inspection of the blade edge helps maintain cutting quality.

Usage recommendations

For best results, mark the tube where you want to cut and support the pipe to prevent deformation. Keep the blade clean and replace it if it becomes dull to ensure burr-free edges. Use appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves and safety glasses, when cutting. Avoid using the cutter on metal pipes or materials outside its intended plastic tube range.
