MEKIT-LG - Metal Pipe Layout Guide Kit - 2 Piece Saddle and Angle Template

Precision Pipe Layout Solution

The Cutting Guide OEM Pipe Pro 2Pc Kit is an essential tool for fabricators and pipe fitters requiring accuracy and efficiency in their layout processes. Designed to eliminate the guesswork associated with manual pipe marking, this kit provides a robust template for the most common and critical cuts in pipe fabrication. Unlike disposable paper wraps or fragile cardboard templates, these guides are constructed from durable metal, ensuring they maintain their shape and accuracy even after repeated use in demanding industrial environments.

Pipe fabrication often involves complex geometry, particularly when creating branch connections or turns. This kit specifically addresses these challenges by including guides for 22-degree, 45-degree, and 90-degree cuts, as well as the difficult saddle cut required for T-joints. By simply placing the appropriate guide over the pipe, the operator can trace the exact cut line needed, significantly reducing layout time and minimizing material waste caused by calculation errors.

The two-piece configuration ensures versatility, covering a range of pipe sizes typically encountered in field and shop work. The metal construction not only provides longevity but also allows the tool to be used in close proximity to hot work without the risk of burning or deforming. For professionals seeking to streamline their workflow and achieve consistent, high-quality fit-ups, this cutting guide kit is a reliable investment in productivity.

Technical Application

In industrial MRO and construction, precise fit-up is the precursor to a sound weld. Gaps or misalignments caused by poor cutting require excessive filler metal and can lead to structural weaknesses. The OEM Pipe Pro Kit mitigates these risks by standardizing the cutting angles. Whether you are working on handrails, structural supports, or fluid piping systems, the ability to quickly mark accurate saddle and miter cuts ensures that the subsequent welding process proceeds smoothly and meets necessary code requirements.
