Common Types of Poly Pipe Tools

Here’s a breakdown of some of the most common types of poly pipe tools you can order for your drip irrigation system.

Poly Pipe Cutters - These hand tools are designed to make clean, straight cuts through poly pipe, ensuring leak-free connections during installation.

Poly Pipe Tool FAQ

Can I use a regular saw instead of a poly pipe cutter?

Technically, yes, but it is not ideal. Jagged or angled cuts from a saw can make it hard to get a tight, leak-free fit with insert fittings. A poly pipe cutter is better because it’s quicker, safer, and gives clean, straight cuts. While a saw will work in a pinch, a proper poly pipe cutter will save time and headaches.

How do I prevent leaks in poly pipe connections?

To prevent leaks in poly pipe connections, there are a few “best practices” that you can follow. First, use a poly pipe cutter to make clean, straight cuts. Next, fully insert your pipes into barbed fittings. You can consider using a fitting insertion tool or softening the pipe end with warm water if it’s tough. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, use compatible pipes and fittings. Always make sure the fitting size matches the pipe to ensure a strong connection.

Can I use poly pipe tools for PEX or PVC?

You can use some poly pipe tools for PEX or PVC, but not all of them are interchangeable. Some basic tools, like for cutting and measuring, work across all pipe types. However, joining tools (crimpers, glue, insertion pliers) are usually specific to a certain type of pipe.
