CUSTOM ITEM: Clean Cut90 Tubing Cutter, for PEEK Tubing, with Storage Case & 1 Replacement Blade. ARE-Applied Research brand. Bulk Price.
Additional Info:
The 46040‑02 Clean‑Cut90™ Tubing Cutter Kit is a precision cutting tool designed to produce clean, nearly perpendicular (90°) cuts on PEEK and other polymeric HPLC tubing. This tool is widely used in laboratories where accurate tubing cuts are critical for maintaining leak‑free connections and minimizing dead volume in analytical systems.
Engineered for ease of use and consistent performance, the Clean‑Cut90™ enables users to achieve high‑quality, repeatable cuts, even in demanding chromatographic applications. Properly prepared tubing ends are essential for ensuring reliable fittings, optimal flow paths, and reproducible chromatographic results.
While primarily designed for PEEK tubing, the cutter is also compatible with other polymeric materials, including PTFE tubing, making it a versatile tool for a wide range of fluidic systems.
The tool supports five common tubing outer diameters:
1/4 inch
0.15 inch
1/8 inch
0.105 inch
1/16 inch
The cutting blade features a flat side and a back side, with a built‑in directional indicator arrow that clearly identifies the face of the tubing that will receive the near‑perfect perpendicular cut. This ensures proper orientation for installation in HPLC systems.
A durable plastic storage case and one replacement blade are included, supporting long‑term use and convenient tool organization.
Why Use a Precision Tubing Cutter?
Improperly cut tubing can cause:
Poor ferrule sealing
Leaks at fittings
Increased dead volume
Turbulence and distorted peaks
The Clean‑Cut90™ helps ensure:
Flat, perpendicular tubing ends
Reliable, leak‑free connections
Optimal chromatographic performance
Reduced need for rework or tubing replacement
