Milwaukee 48-22-4261 Close Quarters Tube Cutter 3/4 in

Product Description

The Milwaukee Electric Tool Corp 48-22-4261 is a compact close quarters tube cutter designed for cutting copper and soft metal tubing in confined spaces. Built for plumbers and HVAC technicians working in tight access areas, this cutter handles tubing up to 3/4 inches in diameter. Chrome rollers provide rust resistance for extended tool life, and integrated weep holes allow water to drain from the tool during use. A directional grip aids handling and gives the technician quick visual confirmation of the swing direction, reducing fumbling in low-clearance conditions.

This tube cutter is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and HVAC installations where standard cutter clearance is not available. Typical applications include cutting supply lines behind cabinets, inside wall cavities, or around obstructions in mechanical rooms. The compact profile is sized specifically for close quarters work where a full-size cutter cannot be positioned properly. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians are the primary users for this tool.

Installation Notes

Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before cutting. A licensed plumber or HVAC technician should verify the tubing material and wall thickness are within the tool's rated capacity before use. Score the tubing with light, even pressure and increase gradually to avoid deforming the tube end. Deburr the cut end before joining to ensure a proper fitting connection.
