Description: This plastic pipe cutter is a one-handed operation cutter with a retractable blade that cuts all types of plastic pipe and conduit through 1-5/8 inches (42 mm). The “V-Blade” design pierces the surface, which makes it ideal for thin-wall pipe. The product cuts polyvinyl chloride (PVC), including thin-wall, chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC); acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS); polyethylene (PE); polypropylene (PP-R); PEX conduit pipe; and tubing. It features a lightweight, die cast, aluminum body. No tools are required to change the blade, and replacement blades and springs are also available.
