Your cart is empty. The Baileigh TN-250 Tube Notcher has a unique self-centering radial vise that allows the operator to clamp down on tubes (and more) in any direction, including in the middle of a bend. Also, by using a truly self-centering vice, the tube notcher is the only hole saw tubing notcher that is always centered left to right, and up and down, no matter what size tube or pipe you have.
The backbone is made from heavy duty 3/4-inch steel plate and all component interlock to create a very rigid platform to reduce vibration and prolong the life of the hole saws. The shaft of the tube notcher is a 1.25-inch Thompson shaft that rides in sealed and oiled needle bearings. Unlike other tube notchers in this category, the two ends of the shaft are completely replaceable. This helps save time and money.
The tube notcher can notch up to 2.5-inch OD and allows large degree angles. The notching carriage can pivot up to 220 degrees allowing the operator to come from the "back side" of the notch. A large degree plate helps get these back side notches lined up. The TN-250 also has a fully adjustable axis to accommodate almost any notch combination.
Baileigh covers this tube notcher with a one-year parts warranty and lifetime technical support by phone.

This is a very versatile tool. It works great, and I'm happy with the functionality and the work it performs. However, this is a very overpriced tool when considering some of the other options from the competitor companies. I wouldn't go this route if I were to ever find myself in the market for a notcher again. I'd be money ahead with a JD2 notcher and an offset attachment from swag offroad. AND have money left over for other fab tools + beer.

Best holesaw notcher period. My notchmaster and beast live under the bench now that I have this one. The design of it you can make any notch you could possibly need. The quality is there also. The price kinda sucks but the old saying is true. Buy once cry once, you won't ever need another notcher

This tool works relatively well. I had purchased one for 300.00, it fell apart after 50 cuts. I gave this tool, 4 stars because the part where the drill attaches started to wear down immediately. Other than that it seems to work pretty good. I am writing again after 5 months and I am using it again. I don't understand why they would spoil their tool with one bad part. The part where the drill attaches to the machine is so soft that a pair of pliers will cut into it. It should have been made of drill steel or something harder than basic carbon steel.

Just because the degree wheel goes all the way around doesn't mean you can notch all those angles. On stuff over 60 degrees on larger tubes like 2" you end up running into the vice and have to finish it off with a grinder..Super nice quality and very rigid setup. I noticed my hole saws last 2-3 times longer with this. Just because of that it ends up paying for itself if you use it semi frequently!
