Manual Articulated Metal Pipe Cutter

The articulated pipe cutter series is a range of professional cold-cutting tools produced by E-WORK for cutting carbon steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and ductile iron pipes. With an ultra-lightweight body design and a rational structural setup, the cutting performance is superior. The cutting blades are made of high-strength tool steel and undergo special heat treatment to balance strength and toughness, ensuring both fast cutting and long-lasting wear resistance.

This series of pipe cutters is widely used in flammable and explosive environments, noise-prohibited areas, narrow trenches, underwater, and other settings. They produce no sparks or debris during pipe cutting, making them the ideal cold-cutting tools for pipelines today.
Suitable Environments
Flammable and explosive environments, noise-prohibited areas, narrow trenches, underwater.
Product Features
※ Professional cold-cutting tool for pipelines
※ Fully manual operation, no sparks, ensuring pipeline construction safety
※ Cutting without debris, ensuring internal pipeline cleanliness and preventing valve clogging
※ Rational positioning device ensures smooth, straight cuts and higher efficiency
※ Special blade design with four blades cutting simultaneously for faster and more effortless feed
※ Simple operation, no additional power source required, durable and long-lasting
※ Short handle, only requiring a 90 to 110-degree back-and-forth motion, suitable for confined spaces
※ The articulated pipe cutter is a reliable tool for straight cuts on the market and is highly recommended for ductile iron, carbon steel, and even No. 100 ultra-thick steel pipes
Technical Advantages
① Short operating handle allows easy use even in confined spaces
② Sturdy guide frame ensures the cut and blades always follow a straight line, avoiding deviation issues
③ Locking mechanism allows the frame to open quickly and easily, making it more convenient to fit onto pipes
④ Feed screw with special processing ensures even cutting speed and force
⑤ Blades made of high-strength tool steel, combined with special heat treatment, balance strength and toughness for fast cutting and durability
⑥ Ergonomic design with a rational frame and blade coordination for more effortless operation
Operating Instructions
1. Check the blades to ensure they are suitable for the type of pipe to be cut.
2. Repeatedly rotate the cutter's operating handle to raise the feed screw to an appropriate position for the pipe diameter.
3. Open the self-locking claw, open the lower support blade holder, and clamp the cutter onto the pipe. Lock the self-locking claw, then adjust the cutter's position relative to the pipe so that all four tips of the guide contact the pipe surface, ensuring the blades are perpendicular to the pipe.
4. Slowly rotate the operating handle to check if the cutting path forms a continuous circle (if not, reposition).
5. Swing the handle back and forth between 90° and 110° while continuously tightening it to feed the blade (the tighter, the better, as long as the cutter can rotate).
6. Continue swinging and feeding until the pipe is cut.
Note: Adding lubricant at the blade during cutting saves effort and extends the life of the blades and equipment.
Maintain continuous cutting motion without prolonged pauses, as heat generated during cutting may cause the blade to become stuck in the cut after cooling.
