What this tool does for you Fast, reliable PVC pipe reamer and drill-bit attachment that cleans, deburrs and prepares pipe ends so new fittings seal properly and do not leak. Saves time and money by allowing repair or retrofit of existing piping instead of replacing whole runs. Key features and benefits Carbide insert with four cutting edges: rotate 90° to expose a fresh edge for extended cutting life and consistent performance. Smooth, precise cutting: removes burrs and cement residue for clean valve and fitting ends that reduce the risk of leaks. Works as a pipe reamer and cleaning tool to remove remaining pipe and broken sections inside fittings before installing new components. Hex shank stainless steel shaft: high strength, high precision and high hardness for durable, long-lasting use with powered drills.
