The RIDGID 246L (10531) Soil Pipe Cutter is used to cut a variety of cast iron soil pipes and can also be used on cement and clay pipe. The soil pipe cutter uses a set of chains equipped with cutter wheels that are tightened around a pipe until it breaks. The 246L comes standard with enough chain to cut pipe up to 12″ nominal diameter. The chain on the 246L is also large enough to allow cuts on 4″ class 22 water main and 2″ to 5″ extra heavy duty soil pipe.
The RIDGID 246L Pipe Cutter utilizes an integral ratchet handle centered on the pipe. This is especially useful when cutting pipe in trenches, helping to keep the width of the trench to a minimum. In addition, it uses a unique hooking mechanism to make hooking the chain easier.
