Watch the video below to see the Smart Cutter in action, cutting away a protruding pipe:
When lining towards a main or connection it is possible that the installation may inadvertently extend past the end of the pipe. This can create blockages and backups which can cause significant
damage and expense. In these situations, Picote Pipe Cutters are fantastic tools to quickly and easily remove an overshot lining that has extended into a connection.
Simply attach the Pipe Cutter to your Miller, push it in place from the lateral and quickly cut off the excess lining.
There are two Pipe Cutter models – the Standard and the Ultra Flex. The Standard and Ultra Flex models feature panels with hardened steel button teeth and both can navigate bends up to 90°.
The Standard Pipe Cutters are sold as a panel pack that is combined with a Smart Cutter™ hub to create the final assembly.
The Pipe Cutter Ultra Flex is self-centering and designed for cutting off overshot linings that occur directly after a bend.
