Knipex TubiX® Pipe Cutter

Shortening the steerer tube or seat post can be quick, precise, and practically effortless with the Knipex TubiX® tube cutter. Perfectly positioned on the tube with just one hand, the rotating roller cutter quickly cuts threadless steerers with a diameter of up to 1 ¼" as well as metal tubes with a diameter of 6 - 35 mm made of steel, aluminium, copper, brass or stainless steel. This saves you from having to use a vice and saw, while also ensuring a clean, straight cut edge with exact measurements in just a few minutes.

It's that simple: Position the opened TubiX® pipe cutter at the cut mark and push the cutting wheel firmly against the pipe using the one-handed QuickLock device and secure it in place. Rotate the tool while continuously tightening the cutting wheel using the ergonomic turning knob. The result is a perfectly cut pipe that can be reworked with the integrated deburring tool if necessary.
