Quick-Acting Tube Cutter for Metal Piping
The Westward 3CYT5 is a quick-acting tube cutter built for aluminum, brass and copper tubing. Its grooved rollers include a flare cut-off groove and a fold-away reamer for clean edge preparation. A spare cutting wheel for copper is included in the package. The tool suits plumbers and HVAC technicians who need fast, repeatable cuts on soft metal pipe.
Cutting Capacity and Handling Limits
The cutter handles tubing from 1/4 in up to 2 in outside diameter, so it cannot be used on larger pipe sizes. The aluminium body measures 9 1/2 in long, 178 mm high and 76 mm wide, which sets the clearance needed in tight spaces. The quick-acting mechanism speeds up adjustment but still requires enough room to rotate around the tube. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to chemicals present in the product.
Quick-Acting Standard Wheel Cutter Mechanism
The single specification that decides fit is the quick-acting standard wheel cutter action combined with the 1/4 in to 2 in capacity range. If the job demands a different cutting style or falls outside this diameter window, another tool type will be required.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the 1/4 in or 2 in capacity version of this tube cutter?
This single model covers the full 1/4 in to 2 in range, so you do not need to pick between separate capacity versions.
What does the quick-acting cutting action mean when I am cutting copper pipe on site?
The quick-acting mechanism advances the wheel faster per turn, reducing the rotations needed to sever copper, aluminum or brass tubing.
How does the standard wheel cutter interface limit the materials I can cut?
The steel cutting wheel is designed for aluminum, brass and copper only; it is not rated for steel, stainless or plastic pipe.
