Straight cuts without a squashed end
A knife or scissors tend to pinch soft tubing and leave a slanted or ragged end, and a ragged end is hard to seal on a barb or compression fitting. With this cutter the tube lies in the channel of the lower half and the blade in the upper half comes straight down through it, so the cut end is square and clean.
Simple squeeze action
The two halves are hinged together. Lay the tube in the channel at the mark where you want to cut, then squeeze the cutter closed in one firm stroke. Keep your fingers clear of the blade when you open the cutter to put the tube in.
Tubing up to 14 mm
The cutter handles soft tubing up to 14 mm in diameter, such as 13/10 mm (3/8"-1/2") tubing. Larger tubing, such as 16/10 mm or 19/13 mm, is too big for it.
