The tool does shave off copper, but there is still a burr. If I continue until there is no burr, I've removed so much copper that the wall at the cut end of the pipe now tapers from the inside out and is very thin. In other words the tool removes the 'good' wall of the pipe as well as the burr. I've never de-burred pipe after using a wheel cutter. No leaks yet... It closes over the end of the pipe restricting flow By bugger all % Maxie, depends on the cutter and sharpenes of gthe blade wheel. They also collect crid. That is why they sell deburring tools. and leaving an edge for crud to gather. Doesn't your magic water conditioner resolve this ? Maxie, how much of the Sherry have you been at? I bet you are hanging off the chair. |
