I have these really small as baffles I want to cut I saw how u cut tubes but I don't think it's possible because I can't grab onto it. So how could I cut a tiny 1.25 wide .5mm thick but the area to cut is only about 2/3 inch. Say I wanted to cut it in half how could I go about doing that

hello guys from toolstop, only two questions.

how many time for cutter and how, many laps around the tube are necessary to cut completely?.

I iamgine that the trickness of the tube are 1, 5 m.m at most, rigth?

Would this cut through the steel on a steel wire armoured cable?

[porkchopm]

Are these cutters able to cut copper pipe, or are they purely just for stainless?

How come you never mention galvanized steel?

Tube cutters work harden the stainless tube when you cut it with a regular tube cutter. Work hardening is bad if you intend to flare the tube after. How do you cut it without work hardening?
