GIVCAPT Posted March 6, 2016 Report Posted March 6, 2016 I have 10 of these media cutters new in the box. $30.00 includes shipping to lower 48 Tempest AA471 Oil Filter Media CutterEvery mechanic knows the importance of cutting the media open to spread the pleats for inspection of metal in the filter. In the past, this has been a difficult job to complete. Tempest's new AA471 provides a low cost, efficient and safe tool that every mechanic will want to put in their tool box. The features and benefits: Strong guard and non-retractable blade to secure the media and ensure an accurate cut. Low cost! Quote
Marauder Posted March 6, 2016 Report Posted March 6, 2016 Please tell me how the box cutter with guide ring isn't aviation priced. Quote
Mooneymite Posted March 6, 2016 Report Posted March 6, 2016 (edited) I've used one of these for years; however the price was about half of today's price. When you need a new cutting wheel, you can buy the $7 replacements, or go to Lowes and find the same thing 2 for $0.47. Your choice. Edited March 6, 2016 by Mooneymite Quote
KSMooniac Posted March 6, 2016 Report Posted March 6, 2016 I think that is for cutting the pleated filter material out of the assembly after the outer can is cut. Sent from my VS985 4G using Tapatalk Quote

GIVCAPT Posted March 7, 2016 Author Report Posted March 7, 2016 This tool is for the paper part of the inner filter and not the metal outer case. It makes the job a lot easier and much cleaner. Thanks Quote
GIVCAPT Posted March 7, 2016 Author Report Posted March 7, 2016 I have sold all of the cutters. Thanks Everyone! Quote
