PIPE CUTTER RIDGID P-TEC 5000

Plastic Drain Pipe Cutter
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.
Unique Features and Benefits
• Clean, Automatic Deburring – The cut produced by this cutter results in only a fine strand of plastic,
as opposed to the fuzz created around the cut of a hacksaw. No need for a second tool to deburr,
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.
Clean – Automatic deburring and beveling.
