Ridgid 43573 Inner/Outer Reamer
The Ridgid 43573 is a stainless steel reamer designed for plumbing professionals who need to clean and bevel pipe ends. It handles copper, brass, aluminum and stainless steel tubing across a 1/8 in to 1-1/2 in capacity range. The tool performs both inner and outer reaming in a single compact body.
Fits Standard Plumbing Workflows
The reamer accepts common tubing sizes found in residential and commercial pipework without requiring separate inner or outer tools. Its plastic body keeps the tool light for overhead or tight-space work while the stainless steel blades resist corrosion during wet installations. No power source or additional fittings are needed to operate it.
Consistent Edge Quality Under Repetitive Use
Stainless steel cutting edges maintain sharpness when reaming multiple joints in a single session, reducing the need to stop and swap blades. The fixed geometry delivers repeatable bevels on both the inside and outside diameters so fittings seat cleanly. The tool is not suited for pipe sizes outside the stated range or for hardened materials beyond those listed.

Questions about this item
How does the plastic body hold up to daily torque and heat from reaming stainless steel?
The plastic body is designed for hand-operated reaming of aluminum, brass, copper and stainless steel up to 1-1/2 in, so it handles normal torque without heat buildup.
Does the tool get hot or noisy during extended reaming sessions?
No motor or moving parts generate heat or noise; only hand force is applied, so the reamer stays cool and silent all day.
What pipe sizes and materials must I already have to use this reamer?
You need aluminum, brass, copper or stainless steel tubing between 1/8 in and 1-1/2 in that requires inner and outer beveling.
