Cut 10-inch schedule 40 pipe in just over a minute with this purpose-built pipe saw from RIDGID, a part of Emerson’s professional tools portfolio.
RIDGID®, a part of Emerson’s professional tools portfolio, introduces a new tool for cutting pipe quickly and efficiently: the Pipe Saw. Whether in the fab shop or in the field, the fully transportable Pipe Saw cuts 1-inch to 12-inch pipe up to a 1⁄2-inch wall thickness.
Designed for versatility, the Pipe Saw is configured to cut steel and stainless steel and with a quick switch to one of the optional blades it can cut plastic and cast steel. Eliminating the need to struggle with gas tanks, open flames, or handle loose tools, the Pipe Saw secures to the pipe with a rugged 3-point roller system that sets up and cuts up to 12-inch pipe in minutes.
Conveniently placed handlebars and feed rate speed monitoring with LED interface enable easily controlled rotation from a comfortable, ergonomic position. Built-in handles and dedicated cord wrap provide easy portability.
“Since introducing the RIDGID B-500 Transportable Pipe Beveller a few years ago, RIDGID saw a need for a portable cutting solution. Our new Pipe Saw is the answer and ideal complement,” said Larry Feskanich, senior global marketing manager, pipe fabrication, RIDGID for Emerson. “The speed and efficiency in making quality cuts, paired with its ergonomic and easily transportable design, make the RIDGID Pipe Saw an ideal cutting solution.”
The Pipe Saw comes backed by the RIDGID full lifetime warranty.

Plumber’s Mate is a convenient alternative to rags, paper towels and containers during faucet, toilet, water heater and other plumbing and hydronic HVAC repairs.
RectorSeal® LLC, Houston introduces Plumber’s Mate®, a patented ultra-absorbent utility pad designed for plumbers and HVAC hydronic technicians to protect property from damaging jobsite water drips, spills and accidents during installation and repairs.
The Plumber’s Mate 8.25 (H) x 7.5 (W) x 2.5 (D)-inch (21 x 19 x 6-mm) plastic bag packaging includes six absorbent pads that each unfold to 24 x 24-inches (61 x 61-mm) for placement under potential water drips and spills. Each pad is constructed of three-pieces: 1) dry touch top layer; 2) dynamic liquid containment layer that uses SuperCore technology to hold up to one quart (0.9-liter) of water; and 3) a leak and waterproof protective plastic layer back sheet, that prevents moisture contact with floors and molding.
Plumber’s Mate is a neat, clean, convenient and disposable alternative to rags, paper towels and cumbersome catch-all containers when working in cramped areas of dishwashers, sink cabinets, water heaters, washing machines and toilet supply lines. Besides service work, Plumber’s Mate is ideal as a temporary protectant under slow dripping supply water sources until permanent repairs can be made.
Other Plumber’s Mate features include:
- Available in cases of seven 6-packs;
- Perfect solution for drying hard-to-drain toilet tanks before repairs;
- U.S. patent number 6,675,702 B1;
- Uses the same three-piece technology as hospital-grade bed pads;
- Made in the USA with domestic and foreign-manufactured materials.
Plumber’s Mate is available at most plumbing and HVAC trade wholesale distributors. Individual packages can be displayed on J-hook merchandisers or cases can be opened into branded, sleeved cardboard counter displays.

New multifunctional tool aids in damage-free installation and easy adjustment
IRWIN® announces that the new VISE-GRIP® Pliers Wrench is now available. With more than 97 years of product innovation in the pliers’ market, the new VISE-GRIP® Pliers Wrench features smooth jaws that provide damage-free installation and IRWIN®’s new patented GrooveLock™ ratcheting up mechanism for easy adjustment in confined spaces.
Ideal for plumbing applications, the smooth, anti-marring jaws minimize harm to chrome and plated fixtures during installation. While traditional adjustable wrenches are difficult to access/adjust in confined spaces, the GrooveLock™ ratcheting up mechanism allows for fast and easy adjustment in tight working areas. The IRWIN VISE-GRIP Pliers Wrench also replaces metric and imperial spanners up to 1-1/2” (38mm) with one convenient tool, eliminating excess equipment on the jobsite, in addition to offering anti-pinching, bi-material ergonomic handles that help provide comfort and control.
Primary users for the IRWIN® VISE-GRIP® Pliers Wrench include plumbers and HVAC professionals. The tool is available now in 10 in. (IRHT82636) and 8 in. (IRHT82635) models.
“IRWIN listened to customer feedback about limitations of traditional adjustable wrenches and implemented several innovations to improve the user experience,” commented Matthew Grella, Product Manager. “We believe the modifications in the VISE-GRIP Pliers Wrench will allow plumbers and other tradesmen to work more efficiently and comfortably, while mitigating damage to work pieces being serviced.”
