Rothenberger - ROCUT PS 35 Plastic Pipe Shears 6-35 mm - 55005

Features of the ROCUT PS 35 Pipe Cutter

The Rothenberger ROCUT PS 35 pipe cutter (article number 55005) is a professional tool designed for precise cutting of plastic pipes with diameters ranging from 6 to 35 mm. Made with high-quality materials, this cutter ensures clean and precise cuts without burrs, significantly reducing the time needed for pipe preparation before installation. The integrated ratchet mechanism allows for cutting with minimal effort, even on thicker pipes, making this tool ideal for prolonged use.

Technical Specifications

The ROCUT PS 35 has a cutting capacity ranging from 6 to 35 mm in diameter, making it versatile for various plumbing applications. Its light weight of approximately 295 grams makes it easy to handle and transport. The overall length is approximately 210 mm, a size that allows it to be used even in confined spaces. The special hardened steel blade ensures long-term durability and maintains its cutting edge even after intensive use.

Compatible Materials

This pipe cutter is specifically designed for cutting pipes made of:

• PVC (polyvinyl chloride)
• PP (polypropylene)
• PE (polyethylene)
• PEX (cross-linked polyethylene)
• PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride)
• Multilayer pipes up to 35 mm

The versatility in cuttable materials makes the ROCUT PS 35 an essential tool for plumbers, installers, and HVAC professionals.

Practical Advantages

Using the Rothenberger ROCUT PS 35 pipe cutter offers numerous benefits during plumbing installations:

• Perfectly perpendicular cuts that facilitate subsequent connections
• No pipe deformation during cutting thanks to the optimized blade geometry
• Reduced work time due to the efficiency of the ratchet mechanism
• Less hand fatigue during prolonged use
• Greater precision compared to manual hacksaws or other cutting tools
• No deburring needed after cutting, resulting in time savings

Main Applications

The ROCUT PS 35 pipe cutter is used in numerous professional contexts and applications:

• Installation of domestic plumbing systems
• Construction of underfloor heating systems
• Maintenance of water networks
• Installation of irrigation systems
• Renovation work
• Small and medium-sized industrial plants

Maintenance and Care

To ensure optimal performance and prolong the life of the pipe cutter, regular maintenance is recommended. Clean the blade after each use to remove plastic residue or dirt. Periodically, apply a light coat of lubricating oil to the moving parts to keep the mechanism smooth. The blade can be sharpened or replaced when necessary, thus always ensuring precise cuts. Rothenberger offers original spare parts to keep the tool in optimal condition.

Ergonomics and Safety

The ROCUT PS 35 has been designed with ergonomics in mind: the handles are coated with non-slip material that ensures a firm grip even in humid conditions. The integrated locking system allows the cutter to be stored in the closed position, reducing bulk and increasing safety during transport. The ratchet mechanism reduces the effort required for cutting, preventing fatigue and potential repetitive strain injuries during prolonged use.
