Lenox LXHT80822 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size tubing will the Lenox Next Gen ratcheting tubing cutter handle?
Two capacities are sold: the LXHT80822 cuts up to 1-5/8 inch outside diameter (1-1/4 inch nominal), and the LXHT80823 steps up to 2-3/8 inch. Match the cutter to the largest OD you run. If you are cutting 2 inch nominal plastic pipe, the 1-5/8 inch tool will not close around it and you want the 2-3/8 inch model.
2) Can this Lenox ratcheting cutter cut copper pipe, or is it plastic only?
Plastic only. The Lenox Next Gen ratcheting cutter is built for rigid plastic tubing, PEX, plastic water lines and similar. For copper you need a wheel-type tubing cutter instead. Putting copper in a ratcheting plastic cutter crushes the pipe and ruins the blade.
3) Can I use the Lenox tubing cutter with one hand while holding the pipe overhead?
Yes. A locking latch sits within thumb reach and the cutter is spring loaded, so it opens and closes one-handed between cuts. The ratcheting action means you can bite through a large wall in several squeezes rather than one hard clamp, which is what makes overhead and in-wall cuts workable.
4) Will this cutter give a clean enough square end for a push-fit or crimp fitting?
That is what it is built for. The coated stainless blade cuts straight and square, which is the requirement for PEX crimp rings and push-fit connections that seal on an O-ring. A ragged or angled end is the usual cause of a weeping push-fit joint, so inspect the end before you push the fitting on.
5) Will the Lenox cutter fit into a tight joist bay or between studs?
The tool measures 6.9 x 1.2 x 12.6 inches, with the 1.2 inch dimension being its width. That narrow profile is what lets it slide into a stud bay or up beside a joist, though you still need room for the handle swing on each ratchet stroke.
6) What part number do I order for the larger Lenox tubing cutter?
The two manufacturer part numbers are LXHT80822 for the 1-5/8 inch capacity and LXHT80823 for the 2-3/8 inch. Capacity is the only thing that separates them, so order by the OD you cut most often.
7) Is the Lenox Next Gen tubing cutter durable enough for daily job site use?
The body is cast aluminum with rubberized handles that keep grip when your hands are wet or muddy, and the stainless blade carries a coating for corrosion resistance and longer edge life. It is a hand tool with no battery or cord, so there is nothing to charge and nothing to fail electrically on site.
