Product Code : EL-AELE-12896
Jlab Export is a leading Capillary Tube Cutter Manufacturer,and suppliers in India
Capillary tube has a very small bore, and a pinched or burred end can choke it. This cutter is made for that one job. It cuts capillary tube of every size without collapsing the inside diameter. It is built of hardened steel and has a rubber grip handle for a firm hold on short lengths.

Capillary Tube Practicals
In a refrigeration system the capillary tube is the metering device between the condenser and the evaporator, so its length and bore matter. Students cut lengths of Capillary Tube and check each end against the wire plugs of a Capillary Tube Gauge. A clean cut lets the right plug pass. A crushed end stops it.
Teachers can then show the old method beside the new one. One end is scored with the file on the gauge and snapped, and the other is cut with this tool. Under a magnifier the two ends look quite different. The class sees why a clean, round bore matters when the tube is brazed into a drier or an evaporator.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why not use an ordinary tube cutter on capillary tube?
A wheel cutter presses the wall inward as it cuts. On normal tube that leaves a burr, but on capillary tube it can close most of the bore. This tool cuts the tube without collapsing the inside diameter.
What sizes of capillary tube can it cut?
It cuts all sizes of capillary tube used in refrigeration work. Capillary bores are usually given in thousandths of an inch, and the same cutter is used whatever the bore.
How do I check that the bore is still open?
Push the matching wire plug of a capillary tube gauge into the cut end. If it enters, the bore is clear. In the workshop a short blow of dry nitrogen through the tube also shows a blocked end at once.
Why must the refrigerant be recovered before a capillary tube is cut out?
Cutting a charged line releases refrigerant, which should not be vented to the air. Liquid refrigerant can also freeze skin and eyes. Recover the charge first, through a piercing valve if the system has no service port, then cut and unbraze the old tube.
