The RIDGID ® P-TEC Cutter is the first cutter of its kind that provides the hassle-free ability to execute

a clean, fast, and straight cut on thin-wall (< 2,5 mm) plastic tube. This versatile cutter can be used on

Polyethylene (PE), Polypropylene (PP), and Thin-Walled PVC tubes of two standard sizes: 32 and 40 mm

OD – both sizes with the same tool. Also available is the P-TEC 5000 for cutting 50 mm plastic drain

pipe. The P-TEC Cutter is another addition to the RIDGID Tubing tools family that brings tremendous

value to any trade in which PVC / PP / PE pipe is used and installed.

this cutter automatically deburrs in parallel to cutting action.

Automatic Beveling – Allows for immediate, easy joining to other sink drain pieces.

Fast Cut – On average six rotations to complete one cut, four times faster than a hacksaw.

Straight Cut – Easy-view windows ensure a straight cut on the marked pipe every time.
