Model CT-128 Mini Tube Cutter : AFTC-TUC-050
The item shown is the AFTC-TUC-050 Mini Tube Cutter (Model CT-128), a compact plumbing and HVAC tool designed to cut pipe or tubing cleanly in extremely tight spaces.
Technical Specifications
- Cutting Capacity: Handles tube outer diameters (OD) from 3mm to 22mm (1/8″ to 7/8″).
- Material Compatibility: Engineered for soft metals including copper, brass, aluminum, and thin-walled steel tubing.
- Frame Construction: Rigid, heavy-duty alloy body coated in high-visibility red powder finish.
- Cutting Geometry: Equipped with a hardened steel alloy cutting blade and a dual groove roller mechanism to guide the tube steadily without jumping lines.
Comparison with the Previous Model (CT-127)
- Expanded Capacity: Unlike the CT-127 (which maxes out at 16mm / 5/8″), this CT-128 model cuts larger pipes up to 22mm (7/8″).
- Physical Footprint: It features a slightly deeper jaw throat to handle the larger diameter pipes while retaining a pocket-sized profile for tight clearances.
Core Advantages & Applications
- Tight Clearances: Perfect for cutting pipes that run closely parallel to a wall, subfloor, or adjacent framing where a full-sized cutter cannot physically spin.
- HVAC/R Repair: Modifying copper refrigeration coils, split AC lines, and capillary tubes on condenser or evaporator units.
- Plumbing Maintenance: Repairing standard 1/2″ and 3/4″ nominal copper water pipes under sinks or within utility closets.
Safe Operation Checklist
- Open and Set: Rotate the knurled adjustment knob counter-clockwise to widen the jaw, then lay the pipe firmly onto the two black guide rollers.
- Track the Line: Align your cut mark perfectly with the sharp steel wheel and turn the knob clockwise until the blade scores the metal.
- Orbit the Tool: Spin the cutter around the pipe 1–2 times to create a straight tracking path.
- Tighten Progressively: Tighten the knob by roughly a quarter-turn after every couple of rotations around the tube. Do not force or overtighten it rapidly, as doing so can crush or flatten the pipe wall.
