A device ( 10 ) for clamping and separating a length of tubing. The device ( 10 ) comprises first and second subassemblies ( 12,14 ) for, in their closed positions, clamping the tubing at first and second locations, respectively, and at least weakening the tubing for subsequent separation. The subassemblies ( 12,14 ) face each other and are connected by a breakable connection. Each subassembly ( 12,14 ) includes clamping elements ( 26,34 ) for clamping the tubing, a perforating or cutting element ( 28 ) for perforating or otherwise weakening or cutting the tubing, and locking elements ( 24,32 ) for locking the subassembly ( 12,14 ) in the closed position. The perforating element ( 28 ) may be at least one hard plastic or metal spike. Once each subassembly ( 12,14 ) is locked in the closed position, the breakable connection is broken to result in respective lengths of clamped tubing.
