Reed Mfg PLAS3PE PLAS In-Line Rotary Pipe Cutter, 14″-24″ PE, HDPE

PLAS In-Line Rotary Cutters are excellent for cutting PVC or PE pipe in trench or above ground. Each PLAS rotary cutter needs just 6 to 8 (153 – 203 mm) clearance around the pipe, making them easy to operate in trench and with lower prep costs. Outboard rollers keep the cutter aligned on pipe, ensuring a square cut every time. Each PLAS cutter also can produce, in-line with the cut, a 15 bevel on both sides of the pipe using bevel bladePLAS4B*.For cutting PE pipe**, REED developed a hardened, tool steel blade for best cutting results. The engineered blade tip drives chips out of the way while cutting PE. PLAS In-Line Rotary Cutters can retrofit from PVC to PE or vice versa with alternatePLAS In-Line Rotary Pipe Cutter Blades.

*Bevel bladePLAS4Bincluded with PVC models 04470, 04475, 04480 and 04485; can also be added to PE models. ContactREEDfor details.
