- 3" Toilet Bowl Flange Remover with Case
- Carrying Case
Remove the Flange.
Save the Pipe.
The Pinell Tools 3 inch Toilet Bowl Flange Remover is a patented, drill‑powered tool that removes a glued 3" toilet flange while saving the original pipe. Instead of chiseling, sawing, and hoping you don’t crack the 3 inch drain, this solid‑aluminum, mini‑lathe style cutter shaves the flange out from the inside so you can reuse the existing 3 inch Schedule 40 PVC or ABS pipe and install a new flange with confidence.
Machined from a single piece of aluminum and equipped with five offset carbide cutters, this tool is engineered to cut faster and more accurately than traditional flange reamers and DIY tricks. Each cutter is offset, so as the tool spins in your drill it works like a precision mini lathe—eating away the old 3" flange evenly instead of grabbing, chattering, or gouging the pipe. The result is a clean, round hub on the original 3 inch pipe with no damage to the pipe wall and a solid seat for the new toilet flange.
Designed specifically for 3 inch Schedule 40 PVC and ABS flanges that are glued into 3 inch pipe, the 3" Toilet Bowl Flange Remover is ideal for repairs in second‑floor bathrooms, remodels, and tight spaces where cutting out pipe or opening floors and ceilings is the last thing you want to do. Plumbers, maintenance teams, property managers, and serious DIYers can turn a high‑risk flange replacement into a repeatable, pipe‑saving process.

Toilet Bowl Flange Remover — FAQ
Everything you need to know before you buy.
What size do I need — 3" or 4"? +
Match the tool to the flange size. Most residential toilet flanges are 4" — that's the opening diameter of the flange that sits inside the drain pipe. The 3" version fits older or smaller installations. If you're unsure, measure the inside diameter of the existing flange before ordering.
What type of pipe is it compatible with? +
The Toilet Bowl Flange Remover is designed for Schedule 40 PVC and ABS pipe. It is not compatible with Schedule 80 pipe due to its thicker wall construction. If you're working on a commercial installation with Schedule 80, this tool is not the right fit.
What drill do I need? +
Any standard cordless or corded drill will work. The tool has a 7/16" hex shank that fits any standard drill chuck. No special drill or adapter needed.
Will it damage the pipe? +
No — that's the whole point. The Flange Remover is engineered to remove the cast-in flange without cutting, cracking, or damaging the surrounding pipe. The pipe stays intact and is ready for a new flange installation immediately after.
Does it work on cast iron flanges? +
The tool is designed for plastic flanges cast into PVC or ABS pipe. It is not intended for cast iron flange removal, which requires different tooling.
Is there a warranty? +
Yes. All Pinell Tools products come with a lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. If something goes wrong, contact us directly and we'll make it right.
