The KNIPEX TubiX S is for metal pipes — even stainless steel — and specialises in tricky repairs in the tightest of spaces. The Mini, measuring just 77 x 55 x 26mm, works even in chiselled open walls or narrow shafts.
It's easy to use: the pipe diameter can be set in advance using an embossed scale. The QuickLock quick fastening system then allows accurate positioning with just one hand. A specially shaped turning knob improves transmission of force by around 20% when adjusting, even with cold or greasy fingers. The smallest tube cutter in the range, the TubiX S fits easily into a trouser pocket, always quickly at hand.
There's often not enough space to use a large pipe cutter, especially when repairing sanitary installations. This is where the small TubiX S, with its very small cutting circle, comes in handy. Its QuickLock locking mechanism enables holding and clamping on the pipe to be performed independently. The pipe diameter can be set in advance using the scale between Ø 3–30mm, and the TubiX S then clips onto the pipe easily and accurately thanks to its spring-loaded cutting wheel. Alternatively, the pipe cutter can be attached to any pipe within its size range when open and simply pushed shut until the QuickLock fastener engages. In both cases, the TubiX S clamps firmly to the pipe and holds its position even when the cutting pressure is adjusted.
The strength of the TubiX S is also evident when cutting: it's shaped so it only needs minimal distance from the wall or neighbouring pipes to rotate freely. The textured thumb recess on the turning knob prevents slipping even in wet conditions.
At just 77mm long, the TubiX S genuinely fits into pockets and repair spaces a standard pipe cutter simply can't reach, while still cutting stainless steel — a material many compact cutters can't handle. QuickLock one-handed operation is a real practical advantage when working in a chiselled wall or narrow shaft with limited room to manoeuvre a second hand.
