Malco "J" Channel Cutter 1/2" – #JCC50R
Create clean drain tabs, notches, and 45° miter cuts in 1/2" vinyl J-channel quickly and consistently. The Malco JCC50R makes repetitive cuts fast and accurate with minimal hand effort.
Hardened all-steel construction with rust-resistant nickel chrome and black oxide finishes ensures long-lasting durability. Light hand pressure produces a click to signal a finished drain tab, while graduations on the upper jaw allow precise tab and notch depth adjustments from 3/8" to 1-1/4". The jaws can also be used to cut professional 45° miter trims.
