Product Details

Technical Data
Product Specifications
This large rotary pipe cutter is designed for cutting 20"–36" pipes, with a working range of 476–915 mm. It supports steel pipes, stainless steel pipes, ductile cast iron pipes, and cast iron pipes. Steel pipe cutting thickness reaches up to 19 mm when used with the RCX cutting wheel. For pipe sizes 16" and above, only approx. 20 cm clearance is required, with a 45°–60° rotation angle for safe cold cutting in large-scale municipal, industrial, and special environments.
Cutting Capacity
20"–36" / 476–915 mm
Applicable Materials
Steel pipe, stainless steel pipe, ductile cast iron pipe, and cast iron pipe
Steel Pipe Thickness
Up to 19 mm with RCX cutting wheel
Clearance Requirement
Only approx. 20 cm clearance for pipe sizes ≥ 16"
Rotation Angle
45°–60°
Application Environment
Trenches, underwater work, explosive environments, stacked pipe cutting, and large pipeline projects
20"–36" Large-Diameter Cutting with Low-Clearance Cold Cutting

The core value of this tool is not ordinary pipe cutting, but handling extremely large pipe sizes, limited clearance, and high-safety working conditions. The 45°–60° small rotation angle reduces the required operating space, while cold cutting is suitable for quiet areas, spark-sensitive environments, trenches, underwater work, and explosive environments.

Conversion Accessories
Conversion Accessories
Conversion accessories allow configuration between RC30 and RC36, improving equipment flexibility and making it easier to adapt to different large-diameter pipe cutting requirements.

Conversion Accessories Reduce Idle Tools and Duplicate Investment

For customers who occasionally need to work across different large pipe sizes, conversion accessories can be more efficient than purchasing a complete additional tool. For municipal repair, engineering contractors, and pipe storage processing, this helps reduce equipment investment pressure and improve tool utilization.

Cutting Wheel Guide
Cutting Wheel Selection Guide
Large-diameter pipe cutting requires the correct cutting wheel according to pipe material and wall thickness. RCS8-36 is designed for steel pipe; RCI8-30 is designed for ductile cast iron and cast iron pipes; RCX provides optimal steel pipe cutting performance for wall thickness up to 19 mm.
RCS8-36
Designed for steel pipes
RCI8-30
Designed for ductile cast iron and cast iron pipes
RCX
Best steel pipe cutting performance, suitable for wall thickness up to 19 mm
The Risk in Large-Pipe Cutting Is Not Diameter — It Is Wrong Wheel Selection

Steel pipe, ductile cast iron pipe, and cast iron pipe have different cutting behaviors. Using the wrong cutting wheel can cause difficult feeding, lower cutting efficiency, faster wheel wear, and unstable cut quality. For large pipeline work, confirm material, wall thickness, and whether RCX heavy-duty cutting wheels are required.

Features
