Threaded Rod Cutters give a fast, clean cut on soft steel threaded rod and eliminate the need for grinding or filing. Threaded rod is commonly used on construction sites to secure pipe, conduit, duct work and other construction elements. Head is made of forged alloy steel while cutting dies are heat-treated for strength. Powder-coated, painted handle features a drilled hole on the lower handle for permanent mounting to a benchtop or other surface. Tools feature a comfort handle grip on the upper handle. TR C2D features two cutting spots for 1/2” or 3/8” and long handle for greater leverage. The TR C1S, with a single cutting space, ships with 3/8” dies and can be outfitted with optional dies for 1/4” and 5/16” rod.
