Pipe and Tube Cut-Off

Continental pipe and tube cutting machines use the rotary tube cutting method to produce faster, cleaner cuts than any other method. Because no chips are produced and coolant is rarely required, the tube cutting work area and parts stay clean and dry. Plus, rotary pipe and tube cutoff produces minimal burrs so deburring operations generally aren’t required. Tooling for Continental pipe cutting machines consists of inexpensive but long-lasting cut-off blades that are available in a range of configurations for different tube cutting conditions. They can be easily re-sharpened using our Model 1G Blade Grinder (see accessories) or, we offer a very economical re-sharpening service at the factory. Continental’s pipe and tube cutting machines are very simple making them fast to set up and easy to operate. Operators will be fully up-to-speed on set up and operation quickly. Plus, they are rugged and easy to maintain. Many Continental customers are regularly running Continental pipe cut off machines that are over 50 years old. Machines are available to cover the complete range from 1/4” to 12-3/4” diameter and up to 5/8” wall. Browse our range of pipe and tube cutoff machines to see which is best for your application, then give us a call or fill out our “Contact Us” form for detailed information, including pricing.
