Ring Cutter – Precision Tool for Pipe Making
This ring cutter for inlay rings, also referred to as a brass sleeve cutter, is designed to precisely create recessed housings in wood – particularly for use in high-end pipe making.
The serrated cutting edge on the head ensures clean cuts with well-defined edges. This results in a precise cylindrical groove that allows a metal ring – typically brass or aluminum – to be press-fitted or glued in place (see images).
