Milwaukee 48-22-4262 Close Quarters Tube Cutter 1 Inch

Product Description

The Milwaukee Electric Tool Corp 48-22-4262 is a close quarters tube cutter designed to make clean, precise cuts on tubing up to 1 inch in tight, hard-to-reach spaces. The compact body fits into confined areas where standard cutters cannot swing freely. Chrome rollers resist rust, and integrated weep holes allow water to drain from the tool during wet working conditions. A directional grip aids handling and gives the installer fast, clear identification of swing direction. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians will find this tool suited to rough-in and service work where clearance is limited.

This cutter is built for residential and light commercial plumbing and HVAC applications where copper, thin-wall, or other soft-metal tubing must be cut in confined spaces such as wall cavities, under sinks, inside mechanical closets, or in equipment rooms with tightly packed pipe runs. The 1-inch cutting capacity covers the common tubing sizes encountered in domestic water supply, hydronic, and refrigerant line work.

Key Features

• Chrome rollers provide corrosion resistance for extended tool life in wet environments

Compatibility

Installation Notes

This tool is used by licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians during pipe installation and service work. Shut off the water supply or isolate the refrigerant circuit before cutting any active line. Deburr cut ends with a reamer or deburring tool before fitting connections to ensure proper sealing. Follow all applicable local plumbing codes and IFGC guidelines for the system being serviced.
