Cutting Wheel, Replacement for Tubing Cutter. ARE-Applied Research brand. 10/PK.
Additional Info:
The 46001‑W02‑010 Replacement Cutting Wheels (10‑Pack) are precision‑engineered steel cutting wheels designed to maintain optimal performance of wheel‑type tubing cutters used in chromatography laboratories. These replacement wheels ensure consistent, controlled scoring of stainless steel and PEEK tubing, preserving tubing integrity and connection reliability.
Over time, cutting wheels become dull or accumulate residue, which can lead to:
Inconsistent or uneven scoring
Increased risk of tubing deformation
Poor snap‑break performance
Reduced connection integrity
Replacing worn wheels restores the ability to produce clean, uniform scoring lines, which is critical for proper score‑and‑snap cutting. This method ensures the tubing can be broken cleanly without collapsing the internal diameter (ID), preserving flow path integrity and system performance.
Each wheel features a precision thickness of 0.36 mm, optimized for controlled scoring around the circumference of common chromatography tubing sizes.
