Milwaukee M18 FUEL 1/2″ – 1″ Steel Pipe Cutter 3469-20
There are several ways to cut steel pipe, however Milwaukee makes a new solution that’s optimized for such a task with their new M18 Fuel steel pipe cutter. This bad boy makes quick work of cutting steel pipe and they say it provides the easiest, consistent clean cuts, with the fastest cut to connection process, and controlled cuts on both installed and new pipes.
It’s basically a specialty purpose metal cutting circular saw, except with a completely different form factor that looks more in line with a large impact wrench. It uses a small metal cutting circular blade with durable tungsten carbide teeth for fast clean cuts. A clean cut means less time wasted on deburring ends to prep them for joining. Milwaukee says you can expect up to 200 cuts per blade.
While there are plenty of other ways to cut metal pipe, this specialty tool has one special advantage, its unique fence system that assures precise, square cuts on existing pipes and new pipes. For new pipes, the foldable cut fence allows easy, one-handed perpendicular alignment, enabling square cuts without the need for a pipe vise.
Runtime is said to be up to 50 cuts on 1″ steel pipe when paired with a 5ah battery.
This new pipe cutter will be available in June 2025 for $399 as a baretool. Steel pipe cutting blades will be priced at $49.97.
