The tool handles outside diameters from 1-1\/4 inches to 1-1\/2 inches, covering the standard sizes used in sink drain assemblies and P-trap connections. The rotating cutter design allows the blade to score around the pipe circumference for a clean, square cut without requiring a saw or leaving burrs that can compromise slip-joint seals. The ergonomic handle gives a plumber steady control in the tight clearances typical under sinks and in vanity cabinets. Overall tool length is 8 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 41608 is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing work where plastic drain tailpieces and trap arms need to be trimmed to length during fixture installation or drain repair. Compatible materials include polyethylene, polypropylene, and thin-wall PVC pipe — the three plastics most commonly found in drain, waste, and vent rough-in and finish plumbing. Plumbers and plumbing service technicians are the primary users, though skilled DIYers working on sink drains will also find it practical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRotating cutter design scores clean, square cuts around plastic pipe OD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCuts pipe from 1-1\/4 inches to 1-1\/2 inches OD — standard tailpiece and trap arm sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with polyethylene, polypropylene, and thin-wall PVC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eErgonomic handle supports control in confined under-sink spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact 8-inch overall length fits in tight cabinet interiors\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlastic body construction keeps tool weight low\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for cutting polyethylene, polypropylene, and thin-wall PVC plastic drain pipe with outside diameters of 1-1\/4 inches and 1-1\/2 inches, as used in standard sink drain tailpiece and P-trap assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn off the water supply and clear standing water from the drain before beginning any drain disassembly. Position the cutter blade at the desired cut mark and rotate the tool around the pipe, tightening incrementally each pass until the pipe separates. Deburr the cut end before reassembling slip-joint fittings to ensure a leak-free seal. Work performed on drain, waste, and vent systems should comply with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Cutting Capacity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches OD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Cutting Capacity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches OD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutter Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rotating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Polyethylene, Polypropylene, Thin-Wall PVC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Design\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ergonomic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23171603\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e: China (subject to change)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: RIDGID\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 41608\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RIDGID","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51525478547762,"sku":"41608","price":143.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d2991ac96aa672843b20b0a4eeb412cb.jpg?v=1785475016","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ridgid-41608-tailpiece-cutter-1-1-4-to-1-1-2-inch-rotating","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
