DP50

The KNIPEX DP50 pipe cutter is an indispensable tool for anyone who regularly works with plastic domestic waste water pipes. It impresses with its ability to cut and chamfer pipes in one step, saving time, effort and additional tools. The smooth cuts and high-quality reversible blade guarantee a professional finish without reworking. A true all-rounder for precise and efficient plumbing work.

Cutting hoses and protective outer tubes made easy: the KNIPEX PlastiCut®

The KNIPEX PlastiCut® (90 20 185) is a versatile hose and plastic protective outer tube cutter that has been developed for cutting thin-walled plastic pipes and hoses up to Ø 25 mm outer diameter.

The perfect hose and protective tube cutter: 

The KNIPEX PlastiCut® is the ideal solution for cutting thin-walled plastic tubes, plastic armoured tubes and (also fabric-reinforced) hoses up to Ø 25 mm. 

Right-angled, clean cuts - with little effort

The trapezoidal blade cuts simultaneously on two cutting edges and penetrates the cutting material wedge-shaped with the tip first. Compared to a straight blade, the pointed blade requires less force to cut into the pipe. This reduces operating forces, deformation and the risk of breakage. No deburring is necessary after the cutting process.

Replaceable blade:

For a long service life and consistently high cutting quality.

Convenient, time-saving work thanks to spring-loaded opening, positioning and fixing

The opening spring takes the effort out of opening the tool with every work step. The spring pushes the shear handles apart and opens the shears when the manual force is released. This is easy on the hand and saves energy, especially for extensive projects with many cutting operations. A locking catch is integrated for transport, which greatly increases protection against cutting injuries. The cutting material is positioned and fixed in the wide, semi-circular holder so that you can cut reliably and in quick succession.

Ergonomically shaped handles:

Made of glass fibre reinforced plastic, for comfortable and reliable working.

KNIPEX PlastiCut®

The KNIPEX PlastiCut® hose and protective pipe cutter is the perfect solution for cutting thin-walled plastic pipes and hoses. The ergonomic handles and practical functions such as the opening spring and ratchet make it a user-friendly and efficient tool. Ideal for tradespeople who value precision and convenience when it comes to cutting plastic and rubber hoses.
