A pipe cutter is a type of tool used by plumbers to cut pipe. Besides producing a clean cut, the tool is often a faster, cleaner, and more convenient way of cutting pipe than using a hacksaw, although this depends on the metal of the pipe. These are used by rotating it around the pipe and repeatedly tightening it until it cuts all of the way through. They are generally accepted to leave cleaner cuts on the outer surface of the tube but leave a burr around the inside of the tube.
