Ridgid 258 Power Pipe Cutter and No.700 Powerdrive

The Ridgid 258 Power Pipe Cutter paired with the No.700 Powerdrive is a professional hydraulic displacement cutter designed for cutting 2½-8in (65-200mm) schedule 10/40 steel pipe, galvanised pipe, and rigid conduit. This robust system delivers square, clean cuts with minimal burring at the job site or in the workshop, making it an essential tool for plumbers and pipefitters working with larger diameter piping.

Powered by the Ridgid No.700 Power Drive, the 258 operates via a hydraulic foot pump that gives the operator precise control over the cutting feed rate throughout the operation. This displacement cutting method eliminates the abrasive dust, sparks, and open flames associated with traditional cutting methods, providing a safer and cleaner working environment.

The system handles both full 21ft (6m) lengths and nipple sections of pipe efficiently, delivering consistent results across various materials. The Ridgid Pipe Roller accessory can be used alongside the cutter to rotate the pipe, allowing a second operator to bevel the cut edge with a grinder for immediate preparation of pipe ends ready for welding or fitting.
