Ridgid 32985 Close Quarters Tubing Cutter, Steel Wheel

The Ridgid Close Quarters Tubing Cutter is purpose-built for cutting small diameter, hard and soft copper, aluminum, brass, and plastic tubing in restricted, hard-to-reach spaces. Available in two compact configurations to match the tightest of installation environments, this cutter pairs a strong, lightweight slide and wheel housing with a large knurled feed screw knob, giving technicians precise, easy control over cutting pressure for clean, accurate cuts every time. Backed by a Full Lifetime Warranty and made in the United States, this tubing cutter is engineered for plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pipefitters who need dependable performance in mechanical rooms, wall cavities, and other cramped equipment areas where a standard tubing cutter simply will not fit.

Key Features

  • Compact, Close-Quarters Design: Built specifically for use in restricted spaces where a standard tubing cutter won't fit, making it ideal for tight mechanical rooms, wall cavities, and cramped equipment areas.
  • High-Grade Steel Cutter Wheel: The cutting wheel is manufactured from high-grade steel for long-lasting durability and repeated clean cuts on copper, aluminum, brass, and plastic tubing.
  • Includes Replacement Cutting Wheel: A spare cutting wheel is stored conveniently in the knob, so a replacement is always on hand when needed without interrupting the job.
  • Knurled Feed Screw Knob: The large knurled knob provides easier tightening of the feed screw, giving the user better control over cutting pressure and smoother operation.
  • Grooved Rollers: Rollers include grooves designed for close-to-flare cuts, allowing precise positioning near fittings and flared ends.
  • Strong, Lightweight Housing: The slide and wheel housing are engineered to be both strong and lightweight, reducing user fatigue during repeated use while maintaining durability on the job site.
  • Versatile Material Compatibility: Rated for use on hard and soft copper, aluminum, brass, and plastic tubing, making it a flexible tool for a variety of plumbing and HVAC applications.

Ridgid 32985 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can this tubing cutter cut plastic and aluminum tube, or is it copper only?
Not copper only. The cutter is rated for hard and soft copper, aluminum, brass, and plastic tubing, which is why it gets used on plumbing repairs, HVAC and refrigeration lines, and aluminum or brass tubing fabrication alike. The wheel itself is high-grade steel.
2) Can I cut close to a flare fitting with this cutter?
Yes. The rollers are grooved specifically for close-to-flare cuts, so the cutter can be positioned right up near a fitting or a flared tube end instead of forcing you to sacrifice extra length of line.
3) Does the Ridgid close quarters tubing cutter come with a spare cutting wheel?
It does. A replacement cutting wheel is stored in the feed screw knob, so when the installed wheel dulls you can change it on the spot without a trip back to the truck. Both the installed and spare wheels are high-grade steel.
4) Is this cutter easy to tighten by hand overhead or in a cramped mechanical room?
The feed screw uses a large knurled knob, which is what makes it workable one-handed in awkward positions, and it gives better control over how much pressure you put on the tube so you get a clean cut instead of crushing thin wall. The slide and wheel housing are built strong but light to cut down fatigue on repeat cuts.
