Power Pipe Cutters

MODEL 258 POWER PIPE CUTTER

The RIDGID® Model 258 Power Pipe Cutter cuts 2 1⁄2″ (65 mm) to 8″ (200 mm) schedule 10*/40 steel pipe, galvanized pipe, rigid conduit, etc. at the job site or in the shop. Powered by the RIDGID No. 700 Power Drive, the 258 is a displacement cutter that provides square cuts. The operator controls the feeding rate by pumping the hydraulic foot pump throughout the operation. A square cut with minimal burr on either 21 ft (6m) or nipple lengths of pipe is achieved quickly** without abrasive dust, sparks, or open flame. Also, the RIDGID Pipe Roller for beveling can be used to rotate the pipe while second operator uses a grinder to bevel the pipe.

Square cut 21ft (6m) or nipple lengths of pipe without effort.
Easily cuts by displacing instead of removing pipe material.
No abrasive dust, dangerous sparks, or open flame.
Quickly cuts steel pipe with minimal burr.
Great for cutting pipe for groove joining.
Heavy-duty design is perfect for field or shop use.
Adaptable for beveling.
Blade not intended for use on stainless steel.
