Single Stroke Snap Cutters
SC59 Single Stroke
The fastest way to cut cast iron soil pipe and small diameter concrete pipe is with a chain pipe cutter (aka: "snap cutters"). Reed has improved the original manufacturer's design by providing stronger jaws and more durable adjusting screws which are interchangeable with the original tools. The single stroke models below make for an easy cut when you have plenty of space in the working area.
Ratcheting Snap Cutters
SC49 Ratcheting Style
These ratcheting pipe cutters are ideal when working in tight spaces. Easy to use because the screw is captured and does not have to be manipulated into place, Reed snap cutters require less effort than those of the competition.
1/2" ratchet wrench ships with SC49 models for easy, immediate use.

Reed Tripod Vise
Reed Tripod Vises are among the strongest pipe vises available. Tripods are manufactured with heavy gauge steel, overlapping hinges, and the best adjustable tray clamp (not a set screw) to keep the lower tray assembly and entire portable workbench tight, even after many hours of use. The heavy-duty design permits use with pipe up to 6" diameter. Exclusive double-faced jaws provide a second set of jaws with options available for both metal and plastic pipe and a 45° cranking handle. For comfort and stability, these vises have a padded handle grip at the balance point and are lightweight for easy portability. Tripod folds down into a compact shape for convenient transportation and storage.
