Re: RIDGID - How To Cut Stainless Steel Pipe
I like the bearing roller and the needle bearing cutter wheel, those are both changes for the better.
Cutting SS tube is tough. Not so bad for a few cuts, but if you are running tube all day or building
a panel filled with SS tube, especially heavy wall like .065" or thicker tube, those bearings will make
the difference."It's a table saw, do you know where your fingers are?" ? Bob D. 2006

It's easy - use a diamond blade or a carbide blade. Choose either a recip saw or an angle grinder. Only Ridgid would come out with something more difficult (and probably expensive). They dont even offer those kinds of blades.~~

Not for instrumentation. You need to use a tubing cutter, something that separates the tube not cuts it. If you cut it with a saw or cutting wheel you'll have swarf inside the tube that must be cleaned out 100%. Instrumentation can't tolerate ANY debris in the tubing. It will clog orifices and/or damage instruments costing hundreds or thousands of dollars. Simply not worth taking a chance.
