Cable cutter NEO tools 02-406 – hand cable cutter, single-piece, 1.9 kg

Steel pipe cutter NEO 02-406 is a disc-blade pipe cutter with screw-operated blade pressure adjustment, designed for cutting steel, aluminium, copper and plastic piping. The tool has a jaw clearance adjustable from 12 mm to 50 mm (1/2”–2”) and a body made of tooling steel. Two guiding rollers stabilise the pipe during cutting, and the disc blades are replaceable for extended service life.

Advantages

The screw-operated pressure control provides precise, gradual blade engagement and makes the cutter robust and easy to operate. Guiding rollers stabilise the workpiece to ensure straight cuts while the tooling steel body offers durability for repeated use. Replaceable blades simplify maintenance and extend the tool's usable life.

Suitable for

• Cutting steel pipes with diameters from 12 mm to 50 mm
• Cutting aluminium and copper piping within the same diameter range
• Cutting plastic pipes such as PVC and similar materials
• On-site plumbing and heating installation work

When it may not be suitable

This cutter is intended for pipes with diameters between 12 mm and 50 mm; it is not suitable for pipes smaller or larger than that range. It is a manual hand tool and therefore not intended for high-volume industrial automated cutting where powered or conveyor-fed systems are required.

Key specifications

• Applicable pipe diameter: 12–50 mm (1/2”–2”)
• Blade type: disc blade, replaceable
• Body material: tooling steel
• Operation: screw-operated blade pressure adjustment
• Guidance: two guiding rollers for pipe stabilisation
• Weight (product data): 1.9 kg

How to use

Place the pipe between the rollers and adjust the jaw clearance to fit the pipe diameter. Turn the screw mechanism to advance the disc blade until it contacts the pipe, then continue rotating the screw to increase pressure and rotate or move the cutter around the pipe as needed until the cut is complete. Replace blades when worn following the manufacturer’s guidance to maintain cutting performance.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm pipe diameters to ensure they fall within the 12–50 mm range
• Consider blade replacement availability (recommended replacement blades by the manufacturer)
• Assess whether a manual cutter suits the required volume of cutting work

Usage recommendations

Use steady, controlled screw adjustments and keep the guiding rollers clean and free of debris. Replace blades when cuts become uneven or require excessive force. For safety, wear appropriate hand protection and eye protection when cutting metal pipes.
