Crescent CRPC118 1-1/8" Ratcheting PVC and PEX Pipe Cutter

The Crescent CRPC118 1-1/8-inch ratcheting pipe cutter executes clean, crush-free cuts on thick-walled PVC, PEX, and plastic tubing for residential and commercial plumbing installations. Engineered with a high-strength ratcheting mechanism and all-metal internal linkages, this cutting tool multiplies user leverage to slice through rigid materials with minimal hand fatigue. Featuring a steep-angled, precision-ground hardened steel blade and an integrated safety lock, it equips professional contractors with reliable square cutting performance across high-volume irrigation and water line jobs.

Best Used For:

  • Residential and Commercial Plumbing Installation: Slicing clean sections of PVC supply lines and PEX distribution tubing without deforming or crushing the pipe wall.
  • Irrigation and Sprinkler System Maintenance: Trimming rigid plastic pipes accurately inside tight trenches and valve boxes.
  • High-Volume Plastic Tubing Fabrication: Making rapid, low-effort cuts on flexible and rigid polymer pipes during continuous pipe-fitting runs.

Key Performance & Safety Features

  • Advanced Ratcheting Mechanism: Heavy-duty all-metal linkages provide high mechanical advantage for smooth, multi-step cutting with reduced physical exertion.
  • Precision-Ground Hardened Steel Blade: Thicker blade geometry with a steep cutting edge prevents bowing and delivers impeccably square cuts.
  • Versatile 1-1/8" Capacity Range: Accommodates pipe diameters from 1/4 inch up to 1-1/8 inches for diverse tubing applications.
  • Ergonomic Non-Slip Grips: Textured handle coatings ensure a secure, comfortable hold in wet or slippery jobsite conditions.
