The new Ridgid 65S Quick-Acting Tubing Cutter has been designed for optimized performance on stainless steel tube. This new tubing cutter is based on Ridgid’s already successful line of cutters that cover a wide variety of pipe, tube types and sizes.  To make cuts faster there is a Quick-acting mechanism that rapidly adjusts to different sized tubing.

The 65S has a number of features that include:

  • Quick-acting mechanism that rapidly adjusts to different sized tubing.
  • Capacity is 1/4” up to 2-5/8” out side diameter stainless steel tube.
  • Six individual bearings replace the traditional rollers. These bearings create a smoother cut and allow for increased speed around the tube.          
  • A contoured frame allows for easy alignment while adjusting the cutter to make a cut. 
  • A heavy duty cutter wheel contains bearings to decrease rotations needed to complete a cut.         
  • Oversized, easy to grip, smooth X-CEL knob allows for easy and quicker adjustments. This knob fits comfortably in the palm of your hand while rotating the cutter around the tube.       
  • For quick and easy cutting wheel changes, no tools are needed with the X-CEL wheel pin.
