Blade Material: In addition to a sharp pipe cutter blade, there are a few different blade types that can improve performance, and strength, enhance the sharpness of a cut, and help with easy cutting. Almost all PVC pipe cutters have undergone some sort of heat treatment to help harden the blade, leading to sharper cuts. Heat-treated steel also helps encourage flexibility so the blade doesn’t break and is able to sustain the cutting force. Available in 14 different size options, the DOMINOX pipe cutters have a triangular blade that creates cleaner cuts and less damage to plastic pipes. They’re extremely easy to use when cutting PVC pipe, implementing a ratcheting mechanism for minimal effort. For peace of mind, it has a latch for added safety when stored away. Lifetime is defined as the period of time a tool can be expected to last under normal use and conditions.

Single Stroke/Spring-Loaded PVC Pipe Cutters: A spring-loaded cutter is suitable for cutting pipes of a variety of sizes. The benefit to using this style is that the spring can keep the tool open, and it offers better cutting strength. A spring-loaded handle is built for faster positioning and can perform single-stroke cuts. Milwaukee pipe cutters are known for their high quality and durability. They are designed to make cutting through pipes a breeze, with features like ergonomic grips, hardened cutting wheels, and automatic feed systems. Whether you're working with copper, PVC, or other materials, Milwaukee pipe cutters can handle it all.
