pipe cutters

Plumbing cutting tools

Pipe cutters are hand tools designed to cut through pipes cleanly and squarely.

The most common type has a sharp cutting wheel that rotates around the pipe as you tighten the handle, scoring deeper with each revolution until it cuts through: You'll need pipe cutters to shorten that copper tubing.

Different models handle different materials—copper, steel, plastic, cast iron.
