Nut Splitters & Pipe Cutter Insights
Nut Splitters Essential for Protecting Joint Integrity
Rusted tight? Stripped edges? Corroded Nuts?
Nut Splitters protect your hydraulic precision wrenches from premature wear, safeguard flanges from expensive damage, reduce injury risks for personnel, and cut down on costly job delays.
Finding The Right Nut Splitter
Selecting the right nut splitter depends on your application and nut size. Here’s what to consider:
- Flat Surface or Flange Joint: For flat surfaces like railroad bolts or other challenging jobs, an Angle Head Nut Splitter is often the best choice.
- Nut Size: Measure across the flats—point to point, not side to side—to ensure the correct fit.
- Nut Type: Identify whether you’re dealing with Heavy Hex, Round, Lock Nut, or another variation to choose the appropriate splitter.
This ensures efficient cutting and minimizes tool wear.

Pipe Cutting, Beveling, & Flange Facing
Leaky Pipes? Resizing a Pipe? Flange Installation?
Pipe cutting can be challenging, whether you’re repairing damage or installing new sections. The portable Split Frame Clamshell is built to handle any task, anywhere. With flange facers and beveling accessories, precision and accuracy are always within reach.
Split-Frame Clamshells
Each split-frame design ensures quick, hassle-free mounting on-site, with compatibility across pneumatic, hydraulic, and electric drive options. Easily integrate accessories for pipe beveling, facing, counterboring, and tubing applications.
Why invest in our clamshell pipe cutter?
- Portable & Lightweight: Effortlessly transport and set up the tool on installed piping.
- Versatile for Multiple Tasks: Perform a range of operations on different pipe sizes and materials.
- Access to Tight Spaces: Designed to fit into confined areas for precision work.
- High Clamping Stability: Strong holding power ensures accurate machining.
- Multi-Function Efficiency: Eliminates the need for separate cutting and beveling tools.
- Enhanced Safety: Cold cutting technology minimizes sparks and fire hazards.
Flange Facers
Our flange facers efficiently turn, bevel, and face pump flanges, valves, and pipe flanges with precision. Advanced processing technology ensures accurate machining for RTJ grooves, continuous gramophone groove facing to ASME standards, and flat face applications. The swivel tool post design enhances groove detailing, minimizing the need for additional accessories.
Pipe Beveling Tools
Our pipe bevel tool is a rugged, heavy-duty chamfering machine designed for precision. Featuring self-centering expanding mandrels, it ensures quick and accurate pipe or tube alignment before machining. Operators simply insert the tool into the pipe, using its legs for proper positioning. Once secured, the machine automatically centers itself.
With the ability to chamfer, deburr, and countersink in a single operation—completed in approximately two minutes—welding preparations become faster and more efficient.
Engineered for mobile use, this pipe beveling machine is ideal for new construction, rework, and fabrication projects. Its streamlined design allows a single operator to handle tasks with ease.
