Mini Tube Cutter : AFTC-TUC-049

The item shown is the AFTC-TUC-049 Mini Tube Cutter (Model CT-127), a compact, manual cutting tool designed specifically for clean, square cuts on soft metal tubing.
Technical Specifications
  • Cutting Capacity: Handles tube outer diameters (OD) from 3mm to 16mm (1/8″ to 5/8″).
  • Material Compatibility: Optimized for soft copper, brass, aluminum, and thin-walled steel tubing.
  • Body Construction: Heavy-duty, die-cast aluminum chassis finished in high-visibility red paint.
  • Mechanism: Uses a hardened steel cutting wheel paired with dual smooth-rolling guide rollers to keep the tube aligned.

Key Design Advantages
  • Ultra-Compact Profile: The small frame is engineered specifically for close-quarters work where a full-sized cutter cannot rotate.
  • Knurled Feed Screw: Large, textured black knob provides a secure grip for micro-adjusting cutting pressure with oily or sweaty hands.
  • Burr-Free Scoring: The tracking guide rollers minimize tube deformation and wall collapse during tight rotations.

Common Applications
  • HVAC/R Maintenance: Cutting small-diameter copper capillary tubes or liquid lines inside tight air conditioning units and refrigerators.
  • Automotive Repair: Sizing copper-nickel brake lines, fuel lines, or vacuum transmission lines under the vehicle chassis.
  • Plumbing: Tracing and altering water feed lines behind walls or underneath sinks.

Step-by-Step Usage Guide
  1. Position: Back out the knob, place the tube squarely between the dual rollers, and align your cut mark directly with the steel cutting wheel.
  2. Tighten: Turn the knurled knob clockwise until the wheel makes firm contact with the metal, then turn it an extra quarter-turn to score the line.
  3. Rotate: Spin the entire cutter around the tube 1 to 2 times to create a tracking groove.
  4. Advance: Tighten the knob another quarter-turn and rotate again. Repeat this step gradually until the tube cleanly snaps apart. Do not overtighten rapidly, or you will crush the tube end.
