The leading cause of coupling failure is an improperly cut hose. Any gaps that allow air or abrasive materials to escape can lead to premature wear and damage.
To better protect your hose and couplings, use this cutter to create a precise, square cut on the hose when performing repairs or installing new couplings. Featuring a ratcheting system, this tool is capable of handling hoses with an outer diameter of up to 2.5 inches.
