General Pipe CleanersATC12 1/2-Inch AutoCut Copper Tubing Cutter

As a plumber I thought this looks like a tool for cutting pipes in hard to get places. It does not cut all the way through the pipe, you either have to try to snap the pipe or use a 2nd pipe cutter, don't waste your money

Easy to use even in tight locations.

I love this tool! It's so easy to use and simple and cuts perfectly. Very happy with my purchase from general and I will deffinately be buying more in the future! Thanks for creating such a well functioning, and lightweight yet compact tool!

Bought these for 1/2inch copper in Aus. Cutters are way too big.Says 1/2inch and 13mm on them but our 1/2inch 15mm copper is too small for it?? Waste of money

I was very nervous about cutting my copper pipes for a DIY project, but this tool made it so easy. Simply snap it on your pipe and make sure it "clicks" shut and begin to turn in the direction of the arrow printed on the tool. Turn 20-30 or so times until the pipe pieces separate (don't stop early when it feels ready to pull apart, keep turning until the pieces physically come apart). It's basically impossible to not get a straight/level cut because of the way the tool grips the pipe. I did some practice cuts on some sample size pieces of copper, and I could not tell the difference between where I'd cut and the other end of the pipe each time. It will fit in a tight area easily, and it doesn't require much effort to twist. I can't think of any way to improve the cutter; it's designed perfectly.
