RIDGID 29963 Model 35S 1/4" to 1-3/8" Stainless Steel Tubing Cutter with X-CEL Knob, Silver

I’ve used the $10 tubing cutters from HFT and A-zone for years, and I thought that’s just how tubing cutters were. When my last one wore out I thought I’d have a look on Amazon to see what others liked, and this topped the reviews. Still took me three months of dilly-dallying to convince myself to spend $45 for a unit I felt should be $10, but gave in and ordered one because I have a ton of metal conduit and tubing to cut. WOW!! This thing is the Rolls Royce of cutters! The Bentley! First of all, it’s huge. It probably weighs a full pound, has multiple rollers with bearings, cutting wheel with bearing, and it’s so well made that the slide never binds and the power screw never jams. It’s like silk. It cuts through 1” EMT like butter, never a hiccup or jump or squeal. It doesn’t wander off track, it doesn’t jam, and it’s very forgiving even if you accidentally over-tighten the cutter a bit. So far I’ve probably made two dozen cuts (?) and it’s actually a pleasure to use it…I’ve been using it instead of a jigsaw or sawzall even for cuts I could do with the saw just because I like using it.I believe this is a tool that will last a lifetime. We’ll see how long I live and how long it lasts, but I’m super happy. Absolutely would buy this over and over if I had to.

Gotta say, I didn't know much about this company and their products being someone who had a smaller cheap one that wasn't really all too great. Saw how many people here held this in high regard and decided to pull the trigger for a project needing 5/16" tune cut.First use with this was eye opening. The cutting, feel, and just overall build quality was top notch! Cut through a stainless steel tube like butter then proceeded to keep doing that on repeat for a few more cuts.The large knob was comfortable to use and turns like silk making it just the most effortless tool for this job.Only thing I can ding it on is the clam shell packaging with no easy opening but nothing a good sharp box cutter can't fix.If you're on the fence, I'm saying take the plunge. It'll definitely be worth it!

I was a bit skeptical of whether this would really work or not, but I was very pleasantly surprised. I needed to make a handful of cuts in some stainless tube, and it worked great. The key was just tightening a little each time. I was amazed at how easy it was, and the cuts came out very clean without any need to file the ends.

Having a center bearing applying pressure on the opposite side of the cutting wheel makes a very easy and nice cut! The extra bearing also help to make the tube very stable while cutting. I’ve had a few other Rigid tubing cutters; but this one is my favorite so far.

Bought this because I couldn't find my old tubing cutter. Naturally after I got this I found the old one. But this one works better. Makes a clean cut very easily, no tendency of the cut to spiral down the tube.

The product was great exactly what I was looking for price was reasonable and worth it I had a wedlock cutter didn't cut as smooth as the rigid one

I purchased the RIDGID 29963 Model 35S Stainless Steel Tubing Cutter to cut the steerer tubes on my new MTB forks. I wanted a cutter that would cut the tube cleanly.The Rigid 29963 model 35S is capable of cutting stainless steel tube w/diameters from 1/4 inch to 1-3/8 inch. It has a large adjustment knob that is comfortable & makes tensioning the cutting wheel easy. There are bearings Instead of rollers that are in most pipe cutters. These felt really good & allowed me to make a true, smooth, clean cut on the 1-1/8 inch steerer tube. There was only a need for minimal filing to clean up the burrs left behind.Overall I am very happy w/this pipe cutter. In the future if I need to cut another steerer tube or handlebars, I know this will complete the job.Thank you for taking the time to read my review, I hope you found it helpful.
