KNIPEX BiX Cutter for Plastic Pipes, 20-50 mm, Cuts without Shavings, 2 Spare Blades Included, Pipe Cutter, 90 22 10 BK

It may seem expensive, but this is a high quality professional tool and the results are impressive. It’s very well engineered and accurate, spare blades are provided (and also available to purchase). If used correctly this tool generates incredibly clean symmetrical cuts but it’s important to read the instructions properly before use as technique is everything in order to maintain a clean neat edge!It’s important to first create a guide track with soft equal pressure, only then do you use the guide track to cut deeper (with increasing force) until the cut is all the way through. If you just grip it hard and twist it without making a guide first it will make an asymmetrical mess (user fault not tool).Also something to keep in mind is regardless of appearance, extrusions meander all over the place in terms of symmetry (a pair of Vernier callipers will illustrate that quickly). As the tool uses the circumference of the extrusion as the guide, any minor deviation in symmetry (fabrication tolerances) will result in a skewed cut. Again not the tools fault, but with practice and care you can produce consistent clean cuts (as neat a laser can)!

Great bit of kit I use it most days

Works well and gets clean cut, although expensive for what it is. There's cheaper versions that probably do the same job but I do rate Knipex.

I work in air conditioning and deal with plastic condensate drains pretty much daily. I used to rely on standard ratchet cutters, but they never lasted long and would often crush the pipe rather than give a clean cut.Picked these up after seeing someone recommend them, and I’ve not looked back. Clean, smooth cuts every time with way less effort. The blades seem to last well, and the whole thing is solid without being bulky — fits nicely in the tool bag and it’s now a permanent part of my kit.If you’re on-site regularly and fed up with cheap cutters failing, these are well worth it.

Excellent for cutting plastic waste pipes saves time to quick and leaves a nice edge for joining other pipes I would definitely recommend the blade is easy to change also A111++.

I bought to replace the rothenberger pipe cutter and it is a inferior replacement. Does not give it a smooth neat cut and requires a lot of squeezing to the tool to cut which can be very awkward in certain situations. The cut always seems to be jagged and not level as well and can lead to problems when using fittings or traps etc. Either rothenberger or ox next for me

Neat quick and accurate cuts, even in tight spaces.Even though it's not cheap it pays for itself in no time, as so much time is saved on any project.The accuracy and quality of the cuts help to ensure a neat and fit for purpose project .

Game changer for cutting 32mm and 40mm waste pipes.. why did I leave it so long before purchasing this?!
