Product Description
Milwaukee Standard Tubing Cutter
Model Number: 48-22-4204
The Milwaukee 48-22-4204 is a Standard Tubing Cutter — a professional manual pipe cutter for producing clean, square, minimal-deformation cut ends on copper tubing, thin-wall steel, and other standard plumbing and HVAC tube materials in the size range for residential and commercial plumbing applications. The precision cutting wheel scores and cuts through tube material cleanly as the cutter is rotated around the tube — each rotation tightens the wheel against the tube surface until the wheel cuts completely through, producing a perpendicular square cut end without the deformation, burr, and rough edges that saw cutting and cutting wheel methods produce in copper and thin-wall pipe. The clean, square, deformation-free cut end that the tubing cutter produces is specifically what is required for proper solder joint, press-fit connection, and compression fitting installation — fittings seat correctly on square cut ends with minimal burr for leak-free joints that meet plumbing code requirements.
Milwaukee engineers the standard tubing cutter for the full range of residential and commercial plumbing tube sizes — the cutter's jaw opening range, cutting wheel depth, and frame rigidity accommodate the standard tube sizes from small 1/4 in. refrigeration tubing through the standard plumbing supply sizes used in residential and commercial plumbing rough-in work. The feed knob advances the cutting wheel consistently for controlled penetration into the tube wall with each rotation for fast, smooth cutting progress. Available in compact, close quarters, and mini formats for different access requirements.
