PRO PEX Cutter

Makes working with PEX a pleasure. PEX products have always been superb. These cutters make the job professional in quality.

Much better than my old one.

Feels like a good quality tool. Seems well made

I haven’t used them on a repair as yet but tested them on a scrap piece and they seem to cut clean and with little effort on 1/2” pex.

Pricing - I definitely wouldn't say this is worth anywhere near $40. It's lightweight, cheap & alternatives can be found for as little as $8. 2/5 Packaging - Comes in standard plastic packaging 4/5 Design - It's unfortunate I had to get this after trying to use normal pipe cutters only to find out that normal pipe cutters cause the PEX to condense upon itself which narrows the opening & leads to the sharkbite fittings not being able to fit. The pro pex cutter features a steel frame with rubber grip handles. The Sharkbite logo is etched into the blade (which appears to be swappable.) There is also a switch for locking the tool in place for storage. It cuts through pex like butter. The cut is clean with no abrasive marks which is much better than the normal pipe cutters. I was able to fix the messed up pipe & install Sharkbite fittings without issue. 5/5 Overall it gets the job done, but the price should reflect what it's worth. It cuts great & is a solid tool although it seems like you're paying for the name. 3.5 out of 5 stars

I used this on a bathroom plumbing project and it worked great. Clean cuts, nice locking mechanism to stay closed so you don't go all French Revolution on your fingers.

Excellent!

This thing broke on the first use cutting 1"poly pipe. The upper aluminum frame that holds the blade snapped right at a screw point. I am a big fan of SharkBite, and I have used many of their cutting tools without any issue. I think this is a major design flaw. Buy a different model!

It's a little pricey but does make it easier to get a square cut due to the jaw holding the pipe being almost twice as wide as any of the other cheap ones I have, the blade comes off and can be replaced or even sharpened, the shape of the blade also makes cutting easier lessening squash before cut.

Great addition for freeze drying, I use them for cutting up hard candies

Disadvantage that you don't find replacement blades on Amazon or the shark bite webpage. Need to buy a new one if the blades getting dull !?? Is there any place where you can order them ??

Hi am not sure if this is common or if I've been unlucky by the pipe cutters broke while using them. The lock function had gone stiff within a week or two and then they fully broke today. They are good cutters while working, am wondering do you guys provide a warranty period?
