How many holes can I drill when using a Relton rebar cutter?
This depends on the size of the rebar being cut in relation to the diameter of the rebar cutter. The less steel that needs to be removed, the more holes you can drill. A 1/2″ rebar cutter drilling through # 6 rebar (3/4″) may only result in 5-10 holes drilled if the rebar is hit dead center of the hole. If the rebar is off center where you are only removing a small portion of steel, you should see more holes cut before the rebar cutter needs sharpening.
