Description
Ratchet PVC Pipe Cutter, Copper Pipe Cutter and Metal Tube Cutter Plumbing Tool
-
No swinging a saw in tight spots: the blade wraps fully around the pipe so there's no room needed to swing a tool
-
One hand stays free: grip and cut with a single hand while the other steadies the pipe or holds a light
-
Less strain on repeat cuts: the ratchet scores deeper with every squeeze instead of one hard push
-
Cuts your whole toolbox of pipe: stainless steel, copper, aluminum, PVC and soft metals, edges clean every time
-
Fits where full-size cutters won't: the slim, lightweight build slips into narrow gaps behind walls and inside cabinets
You're wedged into a corner with a stubborn pipe and no room to swing a saw, right? That cramped, sinking feeling before a bad cut fades once the blade closes around the pipe instead of swinging past it, so basement runs, cabinet fixes and tight HVAC jobs finish clean without the usual fight for leverage.

As a ratchet pipe cutter it also works as a tubing cutter and cutting tool on electrical conduit during plumbing, heating and electrical jobs, and doubles as a pipe fitting tool when you need a clean, one-hand cut. It handles pipe from 0.3 to 1.1 inches (0.8 to 2.8 cm) across, and the adjustable knob stops you from overtightening and damaging the pipe or the blade.
