It's the type of cutting wheel that determines what material it can cut. Hope that helps. **Q: If cutting soft metal, like brass, will the wheels mar it?** A: Pretty much everything will mark up brass. **Q: Is the cut made by this tool more smooth than a hacksaw blade cut.?** A: Yes, but is always recommended to use your pipe reamer to clean up the pipe border **Q: Can this cut both Lovat and Churchwarden pipe types? I worry it will produce too much smoke during the process.** A: Easy to use and great !! ## Frequently Bought Together - Ridgid 151 1/4" to 1-5/8" Quick Acting Tubing Cutter, Small - Ridgid - CC247 RIDGID 40617 Model 101 Close Quarters Tubing Cutter, 1/4-inch to 1-1/8-inch Tube Cutter Silver - RIDGID 29983 Model 223S 1/4" to 1-1/4" Inner/Outer Copper and Stainless Steel Tubing and Pipe Reamer, Small --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/56124955-ridgid-31632-model-151-quick-acting-tubing-cutter-1-4](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/56124955-ridgid-31632-model-151-quick-acting-tubing-cutter-1-4) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-08-25*
