Why This Product Matters
Ever tried to dial a clean cut on 3 mm wall copper when your wheel’s glazed? It skates, work-hardens the edge, and your flare looks crook. Swap to a fresh S74833 in the 406-FA and the cut tracks straight, the burr is manageable, and the joint seals first go. That’s fewer call-backs and a happier site manager—too easy.

Pro Tip
After swapping the wheel, give the feed screw a quick clean and a dab of light oil. Make a light scoring pass, then tighten in small increments—don’t over-crank. Finish with a quick deburr so flares seat perfectly and you don’t nick O-rings down the track.
Compatibility & System Info
- Fits: Imperial 406-FA Adjust-O-Matic Tube Cutter (the 406-FA ships with two S74833 wheels from factory).
- Use on: Common HVAC/R tubing metals like copper, aluminium, brass and thin-wall steel (per Imperial distributors).
- Retaining screw: Use the dedicated S74834 screw for the 406-FA head.
Local note: From hot Sydney rooftops to breezy Perth workshops, a sharp wheel means fewer spins of the ratchet and a cleaner face on the tube—bloody good for productivity.

FAQs
Is this the correct wheel for my 406-FA?
Yes. The 406-FA uses S74833 wheels from factory, and this is the genuine replacement.
What metals does it cut?
General-purpose profile suitable for copper, aluminium, brass and thin-wall steel commonly used in HVAC/R. For soft copper-only work, consider an extra-sharp wheel (see below).
Do I need a new retaining screw?
If the screw is worn or stripped, replace it with the Imperial S74834 screw for the 406-FA head so the wheel tracks true.
