Tool 45242477029 Ratcheting Pipe Cutter 2-3/8 in

Product Description

The TOOL 45242477029 is a ratcheting straight pipe cutter designed for cutting pipe up to 2-3/8 inches in diameter. The ratcheting mechanism allows the user to make clean, straight cuts in confined spaces where a full rotation of a standard cutter is not possible. This tool is suited for plumbing and mechanical work and is typically used by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on residential and light commercial installations.

This pipe cutter handles pipe up to 2-3/8 inches maximum outside diameter. The ratcheting action makes it practical for use in tight spaces such as wall cavities, crawlspaces, and mechanical rooms where pipe runs leave little room to maneuver. It is built for trade professionals who need a reliable cutting tool for copper, plastic, or similarly rated pipe materials on the job.

Installation Notes

This tool is intended for use by licensed plumbers and pipefitters. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before cutting any pipe in a live system. Ensure the cutting wheel is properly aligned with the pipe to produce a square cut and avoid deforming the pipe end. Follow applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines when making pipe modifications.
