Ridgid 154-P Quick-Acting Tubing Cutter for Plastic Tubing

The Ridgid Model 154-P Quick-Acting Tubing Cutter (31657) is purpose-built to cut 1-1/2" to 4-inch diameter plastic tubing quickly and cleanly. Its quick-acting design lets installers operate the tool and produce smooth, square cuts using just one hand, saving time on repetitive plumbing and drainage work.

Backed by Ridgid's Full Lifetime Warranty and made in the United States, the 154-P is engineered for the durability and reliability that professional trades demand every day.

Ridgid 31632 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size plastic pipe will the Ridgid 154-P quick-acting tubing cutter handle?
The 154-P cuts plastic tubing from 1-1/2 inch up to 4 inch diameter, which covers most DWV and drainage runs. Below 1-1/2 inch you need a smaller-capacity cutter; above 4 inch this tool runs out of frame.
2) Can the Ridgid 154-P cut copper or steel pipe, not just plastic?
As shipped it carries a plastic cutting wheel. A quick-release lets you swap in a metal cutting wheel without tools or clips, but that metal wheel is sold separately, so budget for it if you want to cut metal with the same frame.
3) Is the Ridgid 154-P usable one-handed in a tight crawlspace or ceiling?
Yes. The quick-acting design is built so an installer can operate it and make a smooth, square cut with one hand, and the tool weighs 1.25 pounds, so holding it overhead or in a joist bay is manageable. The X-CEL knob gives a firm grip for controlled feed.
4) Do I need to order a spare cutter wheel with the Ridgid 154-P?
Not for the first change. A spare cutting wheel comes with the tool and stores in the knob so a crew can replace a dulled wheel on the job without a trip to the truck. Only the metal cutting wheel is a separate purchase.
5) Should I use a rotary tubing cutter like the 154-P or just a saw on 4 inch PVC?
A wheel cutter like the 154-P scores and rolls the pipe to a square, burr-light face, which is what you want for a solvent-weld or gasketed joint, and it makes no chips or dust in a finished space. A saw is faster on a single rough cut but leaves you deburring and squaring. For repetitive drainage and DWV work the cutter wins on cut quality and speed per joint.
6) Is the Ridgid 154-P made in the USA for jobs with domestic sourcing requirements?
Yes, the 154-P tubing cutter is manufactured in the United States, which matters on public work and institutional jobs carrying domestic-preference language.
7) What keeps the Ridgid 154-P cutting smoothly as the wheel feeds into the pipe?
Thrust bearing slide assemblies carry the feed, so the knob turns evenly through the stroke instead of binding as pressure builds on a 4 inch wall. That is the part of the tool that decides whether the cut tracks in one groove or spirals.
