General Information
Cutting pipes and profiles
The diagram below will help you find the right tooth pitch for
cutting pipes and profiles.
The recommended tooth pitch for cutting profiles is found in
the field where the width meets the wall thickness of the profile.
Example 3: When cutting a 4" x .4" (100 x 10 mm) U-beam,
select a 5/8 TPI or a 4/6 TPI blade.
The recommended tooth pitch is found in the
field where the outer diameter meets the wall
thickness of the pipe to be cut.
Example 4: When cutting a 1.5" x .06" (40 x 1.6 mm) pipe,
select a 10/14 TPI blade.
