Review: Amazing product - Great functions and can cut bigger tubing then 1in 1/8. Great for the money
Review: Great Tool if Used Correctly - This cutter works great... IF you do 2 things. First, make sure the PVC tube is centered in the rollers and not resting on the bottom of the tool where the adjustment screw housing is, or you will most likely crack the tube. Second, snug the blade against the tube and turn the knob no more than 3 half-turns. Run the cutter fully around the tube one time, then tighten the blade another half-turn (for a 1/2" tube) and run it around a second time. You will get clean cuts every time! I like the spare blade that comes with it, and while it's a bit boxy shaped you can do it one-handed.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this cut 1" brass pipe?  The Outside diameter of 1" brass pipe is 1.32".  Thanks.**
A: Its maximum opening ability is 1 and 1/8 inch so although it will cut copper it does not sound like it will open wide enough.

A: Yes, it will cut up to 1-1/8"

A: Yes, it can cut most pipes.

BW2

**Q: How close to a fitting will this get to for a cut?**

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rigid quality!

Didn’t think I would need the close-quarters functionality, but it’s extremely useful. Works great on copper pipe. Don’t forget to clean your pipe after you cut too!
