C.H. HANSON® Revolutionizes PVC Cutting with Introduction of PipeLOK™ by Superior Tool®
The Ratcheting PipeLOK Cutters by Superior Tool® are available in three models accommodating 1’ and 2” PVC pipe. They are designed to make cutting PVC pipe more precise, quicker, easier and cleaner.

C.H. Hanson is introducing the Ratcheting PipeLOK Cutters by Superior Tool® available in three models accommodating 1’ and 2” PVC pipe. Engineered to hold PVC pipes and tubing tightly in place, the newly designed jaw reduces the need to manually align tubing with a second hand. The hardened stainless steel blade, combined with the patented jaw design, allows for accurate positioning on the desired cutting mark and superior cutting results yielding clean cuts with no deburring required.

Designed to make cutting PVC pipe more precise, quicker, easier and cleaner, the lightweight, durable, one-handed PipeLOK offers an ergonomic ratcheting grip action that improves leverage for effortless operation. That saves time helping to keep projects on time and on budget. The tool’s one-button quick-change blade feature and durable powder coat finish means you’ll always have a sharp blade in a durable tool.

With the introduction of the PipeLOK, C.H. Hanson is providing solutions for the inefficiencies that have vexed professionals in the plumbing, irrigation and construction industries since the invention of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipes and tubing.

“For nearly 160 years, C.H. Hanson has listened carefully to the needs of its customers before introducing new tools to the marketplace. Plumbers, irrigation and landscaping specialists and construction workers were clear on what they wanted in a PVC cutting tool: reduced fatigue and physical strain during repetitive tasks as well as reduced down time, and precision results in diverse conditions. We listened and our solution is PipeLOK, a revolutionary answer to the PVC cutting method,” said Greg Guess, Marketing Manager at C.H. Hanson, Co.

Backed by the Superior Tool lifetime warranty, PipeLOK is available in local hardware stores, home centers, online retailers and at www.superiortool.com.

Superior Tool has a nearly 80-year reputation for manufacturing innovative and professional quality tools for the plumbing industry. Its products are used by professionals and on DIY home maintenance projects. The company has introduced more than 24 new products to its line in the past few years, many manufactured in the U.S.

In 2020, the family-owned C.H. Hanson, headquartered in the Greater Chicago area since 1866, purchased Superior Tool adding to the company’s family of exceptional brands, which also includes Palmgren® industrial machinery and shop equipment. Wherever possible, C.H. Hanson embraces U.S. manufacturers that can also compete and win in the global marketplace.
