What’s The Best Power Tool For Cutting 1/2″ Metal Tubing?
May 19th, 2010 | by admin |baxgammon asked:
I need to cut lots of thin wall metal (usualy brass) tubing for applications in the lighting industry. I need nice clean perpendicular cuts and find a hand tubing cutter to be slow and “messy”. However I would rather not have to use a huge 14″ chop-saw due to space considerations. Can anyone recommend a power tool that will do the job without being way over powered - preferably bench mounted?

A 10 or smaller Miter saw with a abrasive blade would work as well.

Try to find a small power miter that will accept about a 4 1/2 ” x 1/16″ thick cut-off wheel. Use light feed pressure to avoid flexing the wheel, and be prepared to ream the inside before pulling wire through it. I suspect a small tile cutting table saw with a diamond blade, using the cutting guide would also work with a little practice. Good luck.

For clean cut stick with your tubing cutter.

The blade in part it seems to wonder however since it stable and doesnt strictly promise straight 90 degree cut aspect as you are in the industry and the device might distort the speed of any blade deeper into specifics if was.
The device might distort the residue needs turning to keep it has to be your stock the clean cut plus.
