Dickie Dyer Plastic Hose and Pipe Cutter Shears – Key FAQs

• Can this cutter be used on metal pipe?
  No. It’s designed for plastic pipes and hoses only. For copper or steel, use a dedicated metal pipe cutter suited to the material and diameter.

• Is it suitable for PVC and PEX pipe?
  Yes, it’s ideal for common plastic plumbing materials such as PVC and PEX, delivering cleaner, more consistent cuts than a saw in many situations.

• Does the ratchet mechanism actually make cutting easier?
  Yes. The ratchet action applies pressure gradually, reducing hand fatigue and helping maintain control for a straighter cut, especially on thicker plastic.

• How should I maintain the cutter?
  Keep the blade clean and dry after use, store it with the safety lock on, and lightly oil the blade if it’s stored for long periods.

• Is the blade replaceable or removable?
  The blade is removable for sharpening and maintenance. If you need replacement blades, check availability for this model/MPN with your supplier.
