Chess Pipe Cutting Cradles – Model A & B

The cutting of reinforced concrete pipes is increasingly being classified as a high-risk activity, with stringent safety requirements now mandatory on most worksites. The Chess Pipe Cutting Cradle is an innovative solution engineered to enhance safety and efficiency in pipe-cutting operations.

Developed by Chess Engineering, a trusted leader in precision engineering and ISO 9001-certified manufacturing, the Pipe Cutting Cradle is specifically designed to securely hold and rotate concrete-reinforced pipes, ensuring a safer and more controlled cutting process on-site.

Key Features:

  • Enhanced Safety – Reduces the risk associated with manual pipe cutting by securing the pipe in place.
  • Rotational Functionality – Allows smooth pipe rotation for precise and controlled cutting.
  • Adjustable Wheel Assemblies – Easily adapts to accommodate pipe sizes ranging from Ø300mm to Ø2100mm.
  • High-Quality Construction – Designed and manufactured to ISO 9001 standards for durability and reliability.
