Sioux Chief 390-50163 Inside Pipe Cutter with 1-1/4" Steel Blade

The Sioux Chief 390-50163 Inside Pipe Cutter is a rough-in plumbing hand tool built around a 1-1/4" steel blade for cutting plastic pipe. It also accepts an abrasive blade rated for cutting either plastic or steel pipe, giving plumbers and contractors one tool that handles multiple pipe materials on the same jobsite instead of carrying separate cutters for each. Manufactured in Taiwan and packaged 100 EA per case, this cutter is sized for tight, behind-the-wall rough-in work where a bulky cutting tool won't fit around the pipe run.

Key Features

  • Trade Size: Fitted with a 1-1/4" blade sized for common rough-in pipe cutting tasks in residential and light commercial plumbing.
  • Steel Blade for Plastic Pipe: Includes a steel blade designed specifically for clean, controlled cuts on plastic pipe during rough-in and repair work.
  • Abrasive Blade Compatibility: Also accepts an abrasive blade rated for cutting either plastic or steel pipe, extending the tool's use to metal pipe when steel blades aren't suited to the material.
  • Inside-Cutting Design: Configured as an inside pipe cutter, built to work around the pipe in confined rough-in spaces where full-size cutters can't maneuver.
  • Interchangeable Blade Setup: Swapping between the steel and abrasive blade lets one tool body cover plastic pipe and steel pipe cutting jobs.
  • Country of Origin: Manufactured in Taiwan to Sioux Chief's specifications.
  • Case Packaging: Packaged 100 EA per case, suited to distributor stock and plumbing supply houses.

Why Sioux Chief?

Sioux Chief builds this inside pipe cutter around a steel blade for plastic pipe and a compatible abrasive blade for plastic or steel pipe, giving plumbing professionals a single hand tool for multiple rough-in cutting tasks instead of a drawer full of single-purpose cutters. Manufactured in Taiwan and supplied 100 EA per case, it's a straightforward, jobsite-ready cutter sized for the tight quarters that behind-the-wall plumbing work demands. For plumbers and contractors who need a compact cutter that fits where full-size tools can't, the 390-50163 keeps both plastic-pipe and steel-pipe cutting covered with a single tool body.

Sioux Chief 390-50163 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size pipe does the Sioux Chief 390-50163 inside pipe cutter handle?
The 390-50163 is a 1-1/4 inch inside pipe cutter, fitted with a 1-1/4 inch steel blade. That trade size covers the common rough-in cutting work in residential and light commercial plumbing. If you are cutting a different size run, this body is sized for 1-1/4 inch and won't substitute for a larger cutter.
2) Can the Sioux Chief inside pipe cutter cut steel pipe, or only plastic?
Both, but it depends which blade is in it. The steel blade supplied with the 390-50163 is for plastic pipe. The tool also accepts an abrasive blade rated for plastic or steel pipe, so swapping blades is what gets you onto metal. Plan on stocking the abrasive blade if steel pipe is part of the job.
3) Why choose an inside pipe cutter instead of a standard rotary or ratchet pipe cutter?
An inside cutter like the 390-50163 works from within the pipe rather than wrapping around it, so it fits behind-the-wall and other confined rough-in locations where a full-size cutter can't swing around the run. If you have clear space around the pipe, a conventional rotary or ratchet cutter is the faster choice. The inside cutter earns its place when clearance is the problem.
4) Is the abrasive blade included with the Sioux Chief 390-50163?
What ships is the tool with a 1-1/4 inch steel blade for plastic pipe. The abrasive blade is a compatible accessory, not part of the same item, so order it separately if you need to cut steel pipe.
5) Will this cutter work on PVC and CPVC?
Yes. PVC and CPVC sizing and fitment prep is one of the listed uses for the Sioux Chief 390-50163, and the included steel blade is intended for clean cuts on plastic pipe during rough-in and repair.
6) What is the manufacturer part number and country of origin for this Sioux Chief pipe cutter?
The part number is 390-50163, made in Taiwan to Sioux Chief's specifications. Use that MPN when matching it against a submittal or a supply house order.
