Cutters & Accessories

Cutting tools for trade and workshop use, from pipe cutters to heavy duty scissors and shears. This guide covers what is here and what each tool suits.

PVC pipe cutter — A ratchet pipe cutter slices cleanly through plastic pipe and tube, leaving a square, burr-free end that seats properly into push-fit and solvent-weld fittings. It cuts with far less effort than a saw and without the swarf, which makes it the tool for plumbing, conduit and tube work.

Heavy duty scissors and shears — Strong general-purpose scissors and shears for cutting sheet, gasket, webbing, cable ties, packaging and tougher materials that would blunt ordinary scissors. A robust pair earns its place across the workshop and van.

Choosing a tool — Match the tool to the material: a pipe cutter for a clean cut on plastic pipe and tube, and heavy duty scissors or shears for sheet and general cutting. Pick the tool that suits the job you do most.
