Cutting electrolytic cans open
09-22-2008, 06:32 AM
I use a pipe cutter also. I have found that as long as you do not try to cut too quickly, and apply pressure in small increments, you get a very clean cut in the aluminum can. A good place to cut is on the crimp near the bottom of the can. Depending on how the capacitor is mounted, I hold the two halves together with either masking tape or or use a glue gun.
