Bernardo Pipe Notcher RA1

Bernardo RA1 Notcher – for tubes up to 3 mm

The RA1 manual pipe notcher is designed to create clean and precise notches on small-diameter tubes, ideal for 90° welding and assembly work. It can process steel, stainless steel, gas, aluminum, copper, and brass tubes up to 3 mm thick (variable depending on the material).

Thanks to its eccentric shaft system, it reduces operator effort, ensuring fast, linear, and burr-free cuts. Perfect for welding workshops, plant engineering, and light carpentry, the RA1 is compact, designed for wall mounting, and can also create double-angle joints with high precision.
