Swagelok MS-TC-308 Tube Cutter | Heavy-Duty Stainless Steel Tubing Cutter (3/16' to 1' Capacity) | Flare-Free Cutting for Instrumentation & Hydraulic Lines
The Swagelok MS-TC-308 is the industry standard for cutting stainless steel tubing in instrumentation and industrial applications. Unlike generic copper tube cutters that dull quickly and crush hard tubing, the MS-TC-308 is engineered to slice through 316 Stainless Steel, Carbon Steel, and heavy-wall alloys with precision. Cutting stainless steel requires a delicate balance of pressure. Apply too much, and the metal hardens (work hardens), making it brittle and impossible to seal. The MS-TC-308 features a calibrated feed screw that allows you to advance the wheel in precise 1/8-turn increments. This controlled cutting action prevents hardening and ensures the tube remains ductile for the ferrule swaging process. Instrumentation fittings rely on a perfectly round, square-cut tube end to function. The MS-TC-308 minimizes tube ovality and flare-out during the cut, reducing the risk of leaks in high-pressure hydrogen, gas, or hydraulic systems.
