Ridgid 226 In-Place Soil Pipe Cutter
RIDGID 226 In-Place Soil Pipe Cutter
The RIDGID 226 In-Place Soil Pipe Cutter is a compact, lightweight professional tool engineered for cutting 1-1/2-inch (40 mm) through 6-inch (150 mm) hub and hubless soil pipe in locations where working space is limited. Designed for plumbing, mechanical, construction, and maintenance applications, the Model 226 combines compact dimensions with an efficient chain cutting system for productive in-place pipe cutting.
Compact 17-Inch Design for Tight Quarters
Measuring only 17 inches (43 cm) long, the RIDGID Model 226 is particularly useful when conventional soil pipe cutters are too large or require excessive operating clearance. Its compact configuration allows professionals to cut cast iron, cement, and clay pipe in restricted areas.
The Model 226 is especially suited for against-the-wall applications and other tight-quarter installations where access around the pipe is limited. This makes it valuable for repair, remodeling, retrofit, and maintenance projects involving existing soil and drainage piping.
Cuts Hub and Hubless Soil Pipe
The RIDGID 226 Soil Pipe Cutter provides cutting capability for both hub and hubless soil pipe from 1-1/2 inches through 6 inches. This versatile capacity allows contractors to use one compact cutter across a broad range of common drainage piping applications.
Unique Chain Latching Mechanism
A key feature of the Model 226 is its unique chain latching mechanism, engineered to simplify positioning and operation in confined locations. Combined with the cutter's compact, lightweight design, the chain system is intended to maximize productivity when cutting pipe in place.
Professional In-Place Pipe Cutting
The RIDGID 226 In-Place Soil Pipe Cutter is an excellent choice for plumbing contractors, commercial construction, building renovation, mechanical maintenance, drain and waste piping, institutional facilities, and MRO operations.
When selecting the RIDGID 226, verify the pipe material, hub or hubless configuration, 1-1/2-inch to 6-inch cutting capacity, available clearance, chain condition, and cutter wheel condition. Proper tool selection and operation help provide efficient soil pipe cutting in demanding, space-restricted applications.
