Ratchet Pipe Cutter 8–29mm | Copper, PVC & Aluminium Tubes
Ratchet Tube & Pipe Cutter — Clean Cuts in Tight Spaces
Take the frustration out of pipe cutting with this compact ratchet-action pipe cutter. Engineered for tradespeople and DIY enthusiasts alike, it slices cleanly through copper, PVC, aluminium, and other soft metal tubes ranging from 8 mm to 29 mm (5/16″ to 1-1/8″) in diameter — even when you're working right up against a wall or in confined areas where conventional cutters won't fit.
Made in Mainland China.
Key Features
- Smooth Ratchet Mechanism: The innovative ratcheting action lets the cutter rotate around the pipe in controlled increments, delivering a clean, burr-free cut every time — no sawing, no mess.
- 2-in-1 Versatile Design: Use the cutter on its own for ultra-tight spaces, or attach the additional handle for extra leverage on tougher tubing.
- Wide Cutting Range: Handles pipe diameters from 8 mm to 29 mm (5/16″ to 1-1/8″), covering copper lines, PVC conduit, aluminium hose, and similar soft metals.
- Replaceable Steel Blade: The hardened steel blade is built to last, and a spare blade is included in the package so you're never caught short mid-job.
- Compact & Portable: Zinc alloy body keeps the tool lightweight and easy to carry to any job site, workshop, or home repair.
- Works Close to Walls: The low-profile head slides right into recessed or confined pipe runs that standard cutters simply can't reach.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What types of pipe can the ratchet pipe cutter cut?
A: This ratchet pipe cutter is designed to cut copper, PVC, aluminium, and other soft metal pipes and tubing with an outer diameter between 8 mm and 29 mm (5/16″ to 1-1/8″). It is not recommended for hardened steel or cast iron pipe.
Q: Can I use this cutter in a tight space or close to a wall?
A: Yes — the compact, low-profile head is specifically designed for confined spaces and can cut pipes that run very close to walls or inside cabinets where a standard pipe cutter would not fit.
Q: Is the blade replaceable, and do I get a spare?
A: Absolutely. The hardened steel blade is fully replaceable, and the package includes one spare blade so you can swap it out the moment the original shows signs of wear, keeping your cuts clean and precise.
Q: How does the ratchet mechanism work?
A: Simply clamp the cutter around the pipe and squeeze the handle in short ratcheting strokes. Each stroke advances the blade slightly around the pipe's circumference until a clean, square cut is made — no continuous rotation required, which is what makes it ideal for tight spots.
