Ridgid Close Quarters Tubing Cutters
RIDGID Close Quarters Tubing Cutters
RIDGID Close Quarters Tubing Cutters are professional cutting tools specifically designed for use in restricted spaces where conventional tubing cutters may be difficult to operate. Engineered for small-diameter hard and soft copper, aluminum, brass, and compatible plastic tubing, these compact RIDGID cutters provide accurate cutting performance for plumbing, HVAC, refrigeration, mechanical, and maintenance applications.
Their lightweight construction and compact design make them particularly useful for working around installed tubing, inside cabinets, near walls, and in crowded mechanical spaces.
Compact Design for Restricted Spaces
RIDGID Close Quarters Tube Cutters are designed to operate where limited clearance makes traditional tubing cutting difficult. Their compact construction allows technicians to cut small-diameter tubing without requiring excessive space around the workpiece.
These cutters are ideal for plumbing repairs, refrigeration service, HVAC installations, remodeling, and other applications involving closely positioned tubing.
Strong, Lightweight Construction
RIDGID Close Quarters Tubing Cutters feature a strong, lightweight slide and cutting wheel housing designed to provide dependable performance during repeated professional use.
A large knurled feed screw knob allows operators to control cutting pressure easily. Gradually adjusting the cutting wheel against the tubing helps produce clean, controlled cuts while minimizing unnecessary tubing deformation.
RIDGID Models 101, 101J and 118
The RIDGID 101, 101J, and 118 Close Quarters Tubing Cutters feature specially designed grooved rollers that allow close-to-flare cutting.
These roller grooves provide additional clearance when cutting tubing near an existing flare, making the cutters particularly useful for maintenance and repair work involving flared tubing connections.
Professional Tubing Cutting Applications
RIDGID Close Quarters Tubing Cutters are excellent choices for plumbing contractors, HVAC technicians, refrigeration professionals, mechanical contractors, commercial construction, equipment maintenance, and MRO operations.
When selecting a RIDGID Close Quarters Tubing Cutter, verify the tubing outside diameter, material compatibility, cutter capacity, cutting wheel type, and available working clearance.
For professional tubing installation and repair, RIDGID Close Quarters Tubing Cutters provide the compact size, controlled cutting pressure, lightweight construction, and clean cutting performance required for demanding applications.
