Built for HVAC technicians, plumbers, and refrigeration service pros, this compact tool handles tubing from 1\/8 inch up to 5\/8 inch outside diameter. Its small footprint makes it the go-to choice for cutting lines in cramped equipment cabinets, behind panels, and in confined mechanical spaces where clearance is limited. The cutting wheel and feed mechanism are sized to deliver a clean, burr-minimized cut without requiring wide rotational swing room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis mini cutter is suited for residential and light commercial HVAC and plumbing applications. It is commonly used when working on refrigerant lines, copper water supply tubing, and similar small-diameter pipe runs in locations that standard cutters cannot reach. Service technicians keep this tool on hand for field repairs and equipment changeouts where access is restricted by framing, insulation, or adjacent components.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCuts tubing from 1\/8 inch to 5\/8 inch outside diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact mini profile designed for restricted-access installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for copper, aluminum, and thin-wall tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDelivers clean cuts with minimal burring to reduce reaming time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight and easy to carry in a standard tool pouch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for general-purpose use on small-diameter copper, aluminum, and thin-wall tubing commonly found in residential and light commercial HVAC, refrigeration, and plumbing systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eA licensed HVAC technician or plumber should isolate and depressurize the line before cutting. Rotate the cutter in full or partial circles around the tubing, advancing the feed knob gradually to avoid deforming the tube wall. After cutting, ream the inside of the tube end to remove any burr before making a flare or fitting connection. Follow applicable IFGC, IPC, or local mechanical codes for pipe joining requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Capacity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch to 5\/8 inch outside diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Mini Tubing Cutter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: REED\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 03470 MC1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"REED","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233585430834,"sku":"03470 MC1","price":26.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307614984.jpg?v=1780103909","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/reed-03470-mc1-mini-tubing-cutter-1-8-to-5-8-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
