Tube & Pipe Notchers and Belt Grinders

Scotchman's line of pipe notchers are top-quality, perfect for double corner joints, great for high production, and always backed by our superior three-year warranty. Available in both hand lever and crank wheel models, these notchers are ideal for steel and stainless-steel tube and pipe construction, coping pipe, hand railings, gates and fences, race car frames and roll cages, marine arches and railing, furniture frames and stainless plumbing for restaurant and dairy.

Industrial Solutions for Every Notch and Grind

Scotchman's pipe notchers are designed to handle a full range of tube and pipe sizes with the speed and precision that high-production fabrication demands. Whether you're cutting straight notches, angled notches, or vent notches, there's a model configured for your application. Manual models give fabricators direct control over the notch with hand lever or crank wheel operation, while electric models drive faster cycle times on repetitive production work.

This is where it's at y'all. I'm a self confessed tool snob and I'm not gonna get all chatty kathy on this page about products I don't count on everyday, I'll say this, Scotchman Ind. has exceeded every expectation I had in deciding to go with them. Durability, customer service, and quality are superb. Homegrown business making machines in the U.S.A. Also, and you can disagree with me if you like, they don't post up fake and artificially enhanced women at FABTECH to sell Ironworkers. That fact alone heavily swayed my opinion to go with Scotchman. If you gotta use silicone to sell machines you've put your company culture and marketing interests in the wrong place.

Why Shops Choose a Scotchman Metalworking Belt Grinder

A well-designed belt grinder does more than smooth a weld. It's an essential finishing tool for fabricators working with tube, pipe, and structural profiles across a range of metal fabrication tools and equipment applications. Scotchman belt grinders are built with the same rugged construction and attention to detail that defines every product we manufacture in Philip, South Dakota.

The SG3 belt grinder is designed for deburring, weld blending, and surface finishing on tube, pipe, and flat material, with a versatile contact wheel and platen setup that handles both flat and contoured surfaces. Fast belt changes keep the machine productive during long production runs. For shops that need a dedicated sanding solution, the DBS-3 belt sander brings the same industrial-grade construction to precise material removal and surface prep work.
