Wonkee Donkee’s Guide to Choosing the Right Tank Cutter
Wonkee Donkee’s guide to choosing the right tank cutter |
||||
 |
When purchasing your tank cutter, you should consider three things:
|
|||
How often will you use the tank cutter? |
||||
 |
If you are only planning to use your tank cutter once every so often, a less expensive tool with a hardened steel blade, rather than a high speed steel blade should be sufficient.
On the other hand, tradesmen using the tool everyday may find a tank cutter with a more durable blade more suitable. |
|||
What will you use the tank cutter for? |
||||
 |
You should check the product specification of your tank cutter to ensure that it can be used to cut a hole of the necessary size. The capacity of the tool is the range of different sized holes a tank cutter can make. | |||
How much should you spend on the tank cutter? |
||||
 |
The cost of a tank cutter depends upon the durability of the tool and whether or not it is designed for extended use. A tank cutter with a blade made out of high speed steel will last longer but will be more expensive.
Tools with hardened steel blades are a lot more affordable and are better suited to DIYers. |
