Yellow Jacket 60139 Tube Cutter

For the service truck, the Yellow Jacket 60139 is a staple heavy-duty tube cutter engineered specifically for high-capacity HVACR copper tubing. This tool utilizes a high-strength aluminum alloy I-beam body that provides maximum rigidity without the weight, ensuring a square cut on large diameter copper pipe ranging from 3/8" to 2-5/8" O.D. The Yellow Jacket 60139 is designed for the high-volume contractor, featuring long rollers with a flare cut-off groove to stabilize the work and a spring-loaded lever release for rapid size adjustments on the fly. Its contoured handle provides superior grip while doubling as an on-board storage compartment for replacement cutter wheels (Part 60124), minimizing downtime when a blade wear-out occurs in the field. Furthermore, the 60139 large tube cutter includes a unique, removable deburring tool integrated into the chassis, allowing you to clean the I.D. of the pipe immediately after cutting to maintain proper flow and system integrity.

• Broad Range Capacity: Precision cuts for 3/8" to 2-5/8" (10 mm to 67 mm) O.D. copper, aluminum, and brass.
• Industrial Durability: Rugged I-beam design manufactured from premium aluminum alloy for long-term field use.
• Service Efficiency: Integrated spare cutter wheel in the handle and a quick-release lever for rapid tool resetting.
• Precision Alignment: Wide body rollers prevent spiraling and include a dedicated groove for removing damaged flares.
• Built-in Finishing: Removable internal reamer/deburring tool stores directly in the cutter body for localized finishing.

What materials can the Yellow Jacket 60139 cut safely?
This tool is optimized for softer, thin-wall materials commonly used in refrigeration and air conditioning, including various grades of copper, aluminum, and brass. It is not recommended for heavy-walled steel or iron pipe.

How do I change the cutting wheel on this model?
The Yellow Jacket 60139 uses a standard retainer screw system. You can access the spare wheel inside the handle and swap it by loosening the steel screw and pin at the cutter head. Replacement 10-packs (Model 60115) are also available.

Does this cutter handle larger refrigeration lines?
Yes, its 2-5/8" capacity is sufficient for nearly all commercial HVAC line sets and suction lines, making it a more versatile alternative to smaller 1-1/8" or 1-3/8" cutters.
