Although it may look like other tubing cutters, it has a unique patented cutting wheel with a shoulder that prevents it from cutting completely through the conduit wall.

You begin using the 8600 just like other tubing cutters by alternately tightening the cutter wheel and turning the cutter around the conduit, but when the cut is deep enough to reach the shoulder on the cutter wheel, you remove the cutter and then simply snap the conduit into two pieces. Because the cutter wheel didn't penetrate the conduit wall, no burr is created.

In addition, the EMT Conduit Cutter is the best tool available for cutting conduit that already has wire installed because the cutter wheel can never accidentally contact and damage wire insulation.

Features:

• Simple to use-just tighten the screw, turn the tool around the conduit, and snap the conduit in two!
• Can cut conduit with wire inside without damaging the wire
• Heavy duty cast body for long life
• Large smooth spindle knob is easy to grip and doesn't hurt your hand
• Replaceable cutter wheel

Applications:

• Installing or renovating wiring in residences, industrial plants, offices, and commercial buildings
