PC-40 Portable Electro-Hydraulic Rebar Cutter
The PC-40 portable rebar cutter is a heavy-capacity electro-hydraulic cutting tool for contractors, steel fixers, rebar fabricators and distributors who need to cut reinforcing steel up to #12 (40 mm / 1-9/16 in.). It completes a cut in approximately 4.5–5 seconds and is designed for 220 V operation in heavy construction, bridge, infrastructure and industrial applications.
COMPACT POWER FOR PROFESSIONAL REBAR CUTTING
The PC-40 portable electro-hydraulic rebar cutter is designed for professional cutting of reinforcing steel up to #12 / 40 mm. Its compact construction combines hydraulic cutting force with portability for efficient work on construction sites, reinforcement fabrication and infrastructure projects.
Built for repeated jobsite use, the PC-40 features a durable aerospace aluminum body, replaceable cutting blades and an integrated electro-hydraulic system that provides controlled and reliable cutting without the abrasive cutting process used by conventional cut-off tools.
#12 / 40 mm Capacity
Professional cutting capability for reinforcing steel up to 1-9/16 in. (40 mm), suitable for common construction and reinforcement applications.
Electro-Hydraulic Cutting
Hydraulic cutting force delivers controlled, consistent rebar cutting without relying on abrasive cutting wheels.
Aerospace Aluminum Body

Aviation-Grade Aluminum Pump Case
The aviation-grade aluminum pump case provides a strong lightweight enclosure for the hydraulic pumping system while helping reduce overall tool weight.
Reinforced Aluminum Motor Housing
The reinforced aluminum motor housing protects the drive unit while providing durable structural support for demanding professional jobsite use.
BUILT TO CUT #12 REBAR
The PC-40 is designed for professional cutting of reinforcing steel up to 40 mm / 1-9/16 in. / #12 rebar, making it suitable for everyday reinforcement work across construction, fabrication and infrastructure projects.
Actual cutting performance depends on rebar material, tensile strength, blade condition and operating environment. Always follow the product manual and specified material limits.
Construction
On-site cutting of reinforcing steel for reinforced concrete structures and general building work.
Rebar Fabrication
Portable cutting for reinforcement preparation, prefabrication and steel processing workflows.
Infrastructure
Suitable for reinforcement work in bridges, foundations, civil engineering and infrastructure construction.
Bridge Engineering
Professional reinforcement tools for bridge construction and large-scale infrastructure projects.
Need a larger cutting capacity? Compare PC-40 with PC-16, PC-20, PC-22, PC-25, PC-28 and PC-32 to select the right cutter for your rebar size and application.
COMPARE REBAR CUTTERSIS THE PC-40 RIGHT FOR YOU?
The PC-40 is best matched to professional users whose maximum required cutting diameter is #12 / 40 mm / 1-9/16 in. Use the checklist below to decide whether this heavy-capacity corded electro-hydraulic cutter fits your application.
A heavy-capacity cutter for #12 / 40 mm rebar work
- Maximum rebar diameter up to #12 / 40 mm / 1-9/16 in.
- Approximately 4.5–5-second cutting speed for heavy rebar work
- A corded electro-hydraulic cutter with high cutting force
- 220 V operation for professional heavy-duty applications
- A 28 kg professional tool for bridge, infrastructure and industrial work
- Replaceable cutting blades and serviceable components
Your application needs more capacity or cordless operation
- You mainly cut rebar up to #5 / 16 mm — compare the PC-16
- You mainly cut rebar up to #6 / 20 mm — compare the PC-20
- You mainly cut rebar up to #7 / 22 mm — compare the PC-22
- You mainly cut rebar up to #8 / 25 mm — compare the PC-25
- You mainly cut rebar up to #10 / 32 mm — compare the PC-32
- You need a significantly lighter cutter for smaller rebar sizes
PC-40 VS OTHER REBAR CUTTERS
Select the model by the largest rebar diameter you expect to cut and whether your application requires corded or cordless operation.
| Model | Max. Capacity | Power Type | Best Fit | Product |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PC-16 | #5 / 16 mm | Corded | Compact construction and fabrication work up to 16 mm | View PC-16 → |
| PC-20 | #6 / 20 mm | Corded | Professional applications requiring #6 / 20 mm capacity | View PC-20 → |
| PC-25 | #8 / 25 mm | Corded | Heavy-duty reinforcement work requiring #8 / 25 mm capacity | View PC-25 → |
| PC-32 | #10 / 32 mm | Corded | Heavy bridge and infrastructure work requiring #10 / 32 mm capacity | View PC-32 → |
| PC-40This Model | #12 / 40 mm | Corded | Heavy-capacity bridge, infrastructure and industrial work requiring #12 / 40 mm capacity | Current page |
Selection rule: choose a cutter whose rated maximum capacity is at least as large as the biggest rebar diameter in your normal application. If your work commonly includes #12 / 40 mm rebar, the PC-40 is the heavy-capacity option in this range.
