Overview
The Fujiya KUROKIN PVC Pipe Cutter is a professional ratcheting cutter designed for clean, controlled cutting of rigid plastic piping used in electrical and plumbing installations. Purpose-built for rigid PVC conduit and polyethylene pipe, it delivers smooth, square cuts with minimal hand effort.
The FP42-BG model supports standard residential conduit and piping, handling rigid PVC conduit and polyethylene pipe up to Ø42 mm (1-5/8"). The larger FP60-BG model expands capacity for thicker and insulated PVC conduit, as well as polyethylene pipe up to Ø60 mm (2-3/8"), making it suitable for larger residential and light-duty commercial applications.
A ratcheting mechanism applies force gradually to reduce hand strain, while the hollow-ground blade geometry lowers cutting resistance and improves cut quality. Its compact, well-balanced body supports stable one-handed operation in tight spaces. Manufactured in Japan to modern quality and safety standards and RoHS compliant.
✅ Designed for rigid PVC conduit and polyethylene pipe used in electrical and plumbing
✅ FP42-BG supports VP30, VW30, VE36 conduit and polyethylene pipe up to Ø42 mm
✅ FP60-BG supports VP50, HIVP50, insulated PVC, and polyethylene pipe up to Ø60 mm
✅ Ratcheting mechanism reduces hand effort while maintaining cutting control
✅ Hollow-ground blade produces smooth, square cut surfaces
✅ Compact body enables controlled one-handed operation in tight spaces
