Ratchet Pipe Cutter 32–75mm | Aluminum Alloy Body | PVC, PP, PE, PU Hose Cutting Tool

Make clean, precise cuts through plastic pipe and tubing with ease. This heavy-duty ratchet pipe cutter is built for homeowners, plumbers, electricians, and mechanics who need a reliable cutting tool for PVC, PEX, PP, PE, PU, CPVC, and rubber hoses in the 32mm–75mm range. The ratchet scissor mechanism means you need far less hand strength to cut through tough pipe — letting you work faster and with less fatigue.

Key Features

• Wide Cutting Range: Handles pipe and tubing from 32mm up to 75mm in diameter — ideal for most common plumbing, irrigation, and HVAC applications.
• SK5 Steel Curved Blade: The hardened SK5 Manganese Steel blade is designed to stay sharp longer, resist breakage, and deliver smooth, burr-free cuts every time.
• Durable Aluminum Alloy Body: High-strength aluminum alloy construction keeps the tool lightweight yet rigid — tough enough for demanding job-site use without weighing you down.
• Ergonomic Fish-Grip Handle: The contoured plastic handle is comfortable to hold for extended periods, reducing hand strain during repeated cuts.
• Ratchet Mechanism: The ratchet scissor action multiplies your grip force so even larger-diameter pipes cut cleanly without excessive effort.
• Safety Lock & Compact Storage: A metal safety buckle at the base locks the blades closed when not in use, making the cutter compact, portable, and safe to store in a toolbox or carry bag.
• Versatile Compatibility: Cuts PVC, CPVC, PEX, PP, PE, PU, rubber hose, and multilayer tubing — one tool for plumbing, irrigation, and vehicle maintenance jobs.
