snap-off

Twist and remove

Snap-off describes something designed to break away cleanly at a predetermined point.

A snap-off blade knife has segmented sections that break off when dulled, exposing a fresh edge: Just snap off the tip when it gets dull.

Snap-off connectors or fittings detach easily by design rather than requiring tools.
