Quick-Acting Tubing Cutter 29963
The Ridgid 29963 is a quick-acting tubing cutter built with an aluminum body for lightweight handling. It is designed for plumbers and maintenance technicians who need fast, clean cuts on copper or soft metal tubing during installation or repair work. The quick-action mechanism speeds up the tightening process compared to standard screw-feed cutters.
Upgrading from standard screw-feed cutters
This tool replaces a traditional screw-feed tubing cutter when cutting speed and one-handed operation are priorities. The jump is worth it for professionals who make dozens of cuts per day and want to reduce wrist fatigue. It is not suited for cutting hardened steel, stainless steel, or large-diameter pipe that exceeds the cutter’s capacity.

Questions about this item
What body material does the Ridgid 29963 tubing cutter use?
The cutter body is made of aluminium, which keeps the tool lightweight while providing enough rigidity for clean cuts on copper and similar tubing.
How do I operate the quick-acting mechanism on the Ridgid 29963, and what step is often missed?
Open the jaws wide, place the tubing against the rollers, then turn the large knurled knob clockwise until the wheel contacts the tube; the step many miss is re-tightening the knob slightly after each full revolution to maintain cutting pressure.
