wrote: I think you're right, Phil. The ratchet ones seem to have two things in addition to the greater force - sharp blade - good holding of the tube to prevent deformation Actually Andy, even with my cheapo tool, there is hardly any deformation with the rotation method, because the cutting action becomes nearly tangential instead of attempting to guillotine the pipe. I find rotating the tool about 90 deg round the pipe as you gently squeeze gets the cutter 1/2 way through the pipe, then a straight squeeze chops through the remainder with little effort and no significant deformation. This is one case where I can't imagine a more expensive tool would make it any easier or produce a better result. This may not be true for larger diameter tube.

On nylon pipe it certainly makes a difference because the pipe is quite a bit tougher. |
