In a nutshell
The right choise for
With the Ridgid 154 quick-acting tubing cutter, you make clean, square cuts quickly and accurately in copper, brass, and aluminum pipes from 48 to 116 mm (1.7/8 to 4.1/2"). The quick-acting slide mechanism lets you position the cutting wheel directly against the tube without tedious cranking. Built with a sturdy I-beam design, hardened wear surfaces, and thrust bearing slide assemblies, it tracks smoothly and reliably during every cut. The large ergonomic knob provides excellent leverage, allowing you to cut metallic tubing with minimal effort. When it is time to swap the cutting wheel, the ball detent pin lets you change it quickly by hand without requiring any tools.
