Absolute pants IMHO sp, get the abrasive role. Those tools rust up in no time.

They are good for cleaning hemp from screwed joints that's the only thing I have ever used one for

Makes me wonder who here actually deburrs the inside of their pipes? I'm going to slice open all your installs to check.......

 

[TerryWaite]

Only ever seen 1 person do it, respected that man, if time wasn't an issue I would do it myself

 

[Roger Welton]

I only tend to do gas lines myself

I missed that. What is it??

 

[PlumbBobBob]

there was a vid on utube about it. basically you can cut through any size plastic pipe with string. the friction caused by the fast sawing action of the string on the pipe melts through it. i'll have a look for the clip and post it up.
