Ridgid RDE5299 Tubing Cutter Replacement Wheel

Product Description

The RIDGID RDE5299 is a replacement cutting wheel designed for use with RIDGID tubing cutters. The wheel is the primary cutting component in a tubing cutter, scoring and severing copper, brass, and aluminum tubing with a clean, burr-minimizing cut. It is a wear item that requires periodic replacement when the cutting edge becomes dull, chipped, or damaged. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pipefitters keep replacement wheels on hand to maintain cutter performance and avoid rework from ragged cuts. This wheel restores a tubing cutter to factory-level cutting action.

The RDE5299 replacement wheel is suited for professional plumbing and HVAC service work where clean, square tubing cuts are required. Typical applications include sweat-fit copper water lines, refrigerant line sets, and light-gauge tubing used in residential and light commercial systems. It is intended for use with compatible RIDGID tubing cutter models and is a direct drop-in replacement for the OEM wheel it supersedes.

Key Features

• Direct OEM-style replacement wheel restores cutting performance
• Designed for clean, square cuts on copper, brass, and aluminum tubing
• Wear-item design allows field replacement without retiring the cutter body
• Compatible with RIDGID tubing cutter models as specified by the manufacturer

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement cutting wheel for compatible RIDGID tubing cutters. Verify fitment against your specific cutter model before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by plumbers and HVAC technicians as routine tool maintenance. Remove the existing wheel by unscrewing or pressing out the retaining pin or axle per the cutter manufacturer's instructions. Seat the new wheel securely before returning the cutter to service. No special tools or certifications are required, but always inspect the cutter frame and feed screw for wear when replacing the wheel.
