Dt Hemi : Basically a large cable cutter

Use this, and forget about tape, grinding, cutting, cleaning whatever. This will cut the hose clean as a lazer, and it has the added benefit of slightly reducing the end from the radial compression. making it easy to put the fittings on. literally, one second and the cleanest cut you can get. Even works on double braid.


I do this too. My cutters are greenlee cable cutters and this is all they are used for. It keeps the hose I.D. clean.

The aluminum vice jaws with cut outs also make it much easier to hold the fitting.

I like and use XRP or Fragola.
