Hydraulic Pipe Cutters: Professional pipe cutters for large steel pipes, available in a range of sizes, including 200mm and 300mm. Feature a foot pump which applies pressure to the pipe from the blade. Uses a power drive unit to drive the cutting blade. Disc cutters and angle grinders are also sometimes used to chamfer pipe, although safety can be a concern. For cutting ductile iron pipe, REED recommends Hinged Cutters™ or Low Clearance Rotary™ cutters. To cut cement lined ductile or ceramic lined ductile, use REED Universal Pipe Cutter (UPC) with the blade for cast iron and ductile iron pipe.

The pipe guide keeps the pipe still during cutting and holds both 4-inch (110mm) and 6-inch (160mm) pipe sizes Having a workbench at an appropriate height is better for posture and puts you in control making the saw less likely to slip when cuttingPlain end drainage pipe comes with a machine chamfer on the end of the pipe already, so manually chamfering a pipe is only required once a cut has been made. Chamfering a pipe involves creating a bevelled or rounded end to the wall of the pipe. This makes it easier to attach a drainage fitting and reduces the risk of damaging the seal connectors in the fitting.
