The RIDGID Model 258 Power Pipe Cutter cuts 21/2" to 8" 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' or nipple lengths of pipe is safely achieved in seconds** without abrasive dust, sparks, or open flame. Also, the Ridgid Pipe Roller for Beveling can be used to rotate the pipe while a second operator uses a grinder to bevel the pipe. Some of the 258 advantages follow: • Square cut 21' 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 Specifications Cutting Capacity: Model 258 21/2" to 8" schedule 10*/40 steel pipe No. 700 RPM: 33 (no load) Weight: 105 lbs.
