Barry E Walter Sr Company TC50 Tube Cutter 1/2 Inch

Product Description

The BARRY E WALTER SR COMPANY TC50 is a 1/2-inch tube cutter designed for clean, precise cuts on small-diameter tubing. Built for trade use in plumbing, HVAC, and refrigeration work, it provides a controlled cutting action that produces burr-free ends suitable for soldering, flaring, or fitting connections. Compact and handheld, the TC50 is the type of tool kept on the belt or in the service bag for everyday field cuts. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and refrigeration mechanics are the primary users of this class of cutter.

The TC50 is suited for cutting 1/2-inch OD copper, brass, or thin-wall tubing commonly found in residential and light commercial plumbing and refrigeration systems. Typical applications include cutting supply lines, refrigerant lines, and drain tubing during new installation or service work. Its compact form factor makes it practical in tight spaces such as wall cavities, under sinks, and mechanical chases where a full-size cutter cannot maneuver.
