Wheeler-Rex 79022 Tubing Cutter
The Wheeler-Rex 79022 is a one-stroke chain cutter designed for glass and brittle tubular materials. It handles tube diameters from 1/4 in to 1-1/2 in with a squeeze-and-pop action. The steel body and steel chain weigh .7 lb and measure 8 in overall. A replaceable chain (part 7922) extends service life.
Plumbers and technicians cutting glass tube
This tool suits installers who need quick, clean cuts on glass or brittle tubing up to 1-1/2 in diameter. It is not suited for cutting metal pipe, plastic conduit or large-diameter tube beyond the stated capacity. Buyers needing a cutter for copper, steel or PVC should select a different model.
Verify tube material and diameter before ordering
Confirm the tubing is glass or a similar brittle material and falls within the 1/4 in to 1-1/2 in range. Ensure the 8 in tool length fits the work area and that a steel chain is acceptable for the application. Replacement chain 7922 is available separately when the original wears out.
