Channellock W-4609 Tubing Cutter 1-5/8 Inches

Product Description

The CHANNELLOCK W-4609 is a 1-5/8 inch tubing cutter designed for cutting copper, aluminum, and stainless steel tubing in plumbing, HVAC, and refrigeration applications. The tool uses a four-roller design that keeps the cutter tracking true around the tube wall, reducing the chance of a crooked or crushed cut. An extra cutting wheel and a built-in deburring tool are included, so technicians can clean up the cut end without switching to a separate reamer. Replacement blades are available for ongoing serviceability.

This tubing cutter suits residential and light commercial work where clean, precise tube cuts are required. Plumbers and HVAC technicians commonly use it when cutting supply lines, refrigerant lines, or drain connections in tight quarters. The compact design handles tubing up to 1-5/8 inches in outside diameter, covering most common copper and aluminum tube sizes encountered in field service and new installation work.

Key Features

• Cuts copper, aluminum, and stainless steel tubing up to 1-5/8 inches outside diameter
• Four-roller construction maintains alignment and delivers a square, consistent cut
• Includes one extra cutting wheel for extended service life
• Built-in deburring tool removes burrs from the cut end without a separate tool

Compatibility

Designed for use on copper, aluminum, and stainless steel tubing up to 1-5/8 inches outside diameter, as used in plumbing, HVAC, and refrigeration tubing applications.

Installation Notes

A licensed plumber or HVAC technician should shut off all fluid or refrigerant flow and depressurize the line before cutting. Score the tubing with light, even rotations of the cutter, gradually tightening the feed screw to avoid crushing or deforming the tube wall. After cutting, use the included deburring tool to remove internal burrs before making any flare or solder connection. Follow applicable IPC, IFGC, or local mechanical code requirements for the specific tubing material and system type.
