70% to passCopper coil tubing is best cut with a _______________.
Aflare cutter
Btubing cutter
Cpipe cutter
Dhand hacksaw
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) tubing cutter. Copper coil tubing is best cut with a tubing cutter because it is designed specifically for cutting thin-walled, soft metal tubing like copper. A tubing cutter has a sharp, rotating wheel that scores and cleanly severs the tubing without deforming or crimping it. This is the most efficient and cleanest way to cut copper coil tubing. The other options are not as suitable - a flare cutter is used to flare the end of tubing, a pipe cutter is designed for thicker-walled rigid pipe, and a hand hacksaw would be more likely to deform the soft copper tubing.
