Discuss What is the best pipe slice? in the Plumbing Jobs | The Job-board area at PlumbersForums.net

I have a Tornado branded one which I think is a Toolstation brand. Doesn't seem to be any different to Kopex. The main thing is to remember you replace wheels when blunt and keep them well oiled and occasionally solvent clean them to get rid of dust and debris. Even the best one won't perform well without oil.
 
I heard the Milwaukee electric one was on sale... might not be good for tight spaces but good if you do a lot of cutting

Wait another few months - they will be giving them away.
I would have to rate the Milwaukee pipe cutter the worst tool I have ever bought.

Come to think of it, I probably didn't pay for it.
It was probably given to me as a package deal with something.

Whatever - pile of junk
 
Never really thought about this ..got loads ..anyway the ones that I have had for years and use most days say on the side
' Rothenberger' pipe slice is that a help 15 and 22
centralheatking mind you I also use Monument cutter for 28 mm
etc
 
Kopex,rothenberg and monument last about one year for me. But a couple of years ago I started using Sabre from The Range, every bit as good, solid sturdy and only £6. Sadly I've only ever seen 15mm though but I love them. I can have three or four for they price of one of the above and works and last just as good. Cheap ones are mostly crap but Sabre are deffo a worthy competitor.
