Knipex 90-25-25 Composite Pipe Cutter 8.27 in

Product Description

The KNIPEX 90-25-25 is a hand-held pipe cutter designed specifically for aluminum composite and plastic conduit pipe up to 1 inch in diameter. It uses a rotating cutting wheel rather than a fixed shear blade, allowing the tool to penetrate pipe material with minimal deformation and up to 60% less cutting effort compared to conventional shears. Wide plastic supports on both sides of the cutting head guide the pipe automatically into a true right-angle position, producing clean, square cuts. A built-in locking mechanism secures the tool for safe storage and transport. Licensed electricians and plumbers reach for this tool when working with composite and plastic conduit in tight spaces where short cuts are required.

The 90-25-25 is suited for residential and commercial electrical and plumbing work where aluminum composite or plastic conduit pipe needs to be cut cleanly and quickly. Its compact profile allows access in confined installations. The low-friction rotating wheel design means the installer rotates the pipe against the wheel rather than forcing the blade through the wall, reducing hand fatigue on high-volume jobs. A replacement cutting wheel is available under part number 90 25 25 E01, extending the service life of the tool.

Installation Notes

This tool is installed and used by licensed electricians and plumbers working with composite or plastic conduit. Before cutting, de-energize any nearby circuits and ensure the pipe section is free of tension or pressure. Rotate the pipe against the cutting wheel using steady, even pressure rather than forcing the tool. Inspect the cutting wheel for wear before each use and replace with the designated spare wheel when wheel integrity is compromised.
