Product Details

Autocut copper tubing cutters are a great tool to have when you don't have enough swing room to use a full-size tubing cutter. You can cut copper tubing with less than one inch of clearance or you can easily handle close stub out work and it's quicker than conventional copper tubing cutters.Just snap it on the tube, close the gate and turn. The cutter wheel automatically tightens as you turn the autocut no knobs to twist. The cutter wheel is spring loaded to provide a constant cutting pressure, so you'll never accidentally crimp the tubing.For extra leverage in awkward spaces, you can get a ratchet turning handle. It slides over the autocut from either side for maximum ease of operation.The autocut copper tubing cutters have long lasting hardened steel cutting wheels that are easy to replace when the time comes. Keep all three in your toolbox. Watch out though, they'll spoil you.
  • Cuts 1/2 in. Dia copper tubing with less than 1 in. of clearance
  • Spring-loaded cutter wheel provides constant pressure to avoid accidental crimping
  • Automatically tightens as you turn
  • Hardened-steel cutting wheel
  • Excellent for stub-out work
  • For extra leverage in awkward spaces, you can get a ratchet turning handle

            A:  Yes. You can buy a "replacement wheel" but I haven't done so as yet.

            by|Dec 26, 2020

              A:  Yes but it never seems to work as good as if you just buy a new one.

                      Lifesaver!
                      I'm a nearly 70 year old woman who googled my way to finding the Autocut and Sharkbites, after I experienced my first burst pipe from our frigid Christmas holiday weather. I was super lucky to identify the burst pipe (praying that was the only one that burst) and fixed it myself. I wouldn't say it was easy, (because of the location of the pipe), but if I can do it anybody can. Without this tool, I would have been sunk ;).

                        Worked like a charm. Glad I purchased it. Needed it for cutting in a tight area as shown.

                        makes nice clean cuts in copper pipe
                        Makes a nice clean cut of copper pipes. Especially handy when removing pipe that is close to joists and walls as it need very little space around the pipe. It does not work well on 1/2" PEX pipe.
