DERC Flexa-Jet Chain Manipulator

Abrasive Pipe Cutter

The Flexa-Jet Chain Manipulator is an abrasive pipe cutter, designed for cutting pipes with a minimum diameter of 168 mm. This innovative tool clamps securely around the pipe using a chain tensioning system. Once mounted, a carriage with a cutting nozzle travels along the chain, guided by a powerful air motor and gearbox, ensuring a steady, consistent cutting speed.

Abrasive Cutting

Cutting is performed using high-pressure water combined with abrasive, delivered through a specially designed supply hopper and nozzle that ensures accurate and efficient performance – even through the toughest materials.
