How to use

Rotate the cutter around the pipe while gradually tightening until the pipe is severed. Inspect the cut and remove any minor burrs if necessary before installation.

Recommendations

Use the tool on pipes within the specified diameter range (3–16 mm). For best results, ensure the cutting wheel is clean and undamaged; replace the wheel if cuts become uneven. Avoid using excessive force when tightening to prevent deformation of thin-walled pipes.
