Our verdict

A SharkBite cutter for PEX tubing within a stated range of sizes, finished in orange paint. The material entry says copper, which looks odd for a cutting tool.

Overview

Not a fitting or a wrench, this SharkBite tool is a PEX tubing cutter, painted orange, that handles tube across a stated size range. The listing also mentions a one half inch NPT thread and an adapter connector.

A defined tube range and a light body suit plumbing jobs that involve PEX runs. The limitation is the confusing material and connector entries, which do not match how a cutter normally works.

Who it's for

PEX repair and new runs, where a clean square cut matters, are the situation. Shoppers who cut metal pipe or tubing outside the stated range should look at a cutter built for it.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Stated PEX size range
  • Light hand-held body
  • Painted orange finish
  • Two year limited warranty
Cons
  • Material entry looks odd
  • Cutting method not described
  • Metal pipe not covered

Performance notes

A cutter scores and severs the tubing by closing the blade through the wall, so a sharp blade gives a squarer cut for fittings. The stated range limits which tubing sizes it can hold. The listing does not explain the blade or ratchet design.
