Frequently Asked Questions

Mitred Joint Units

How do I specify the angle I need?
Specify the angle between the notched tube centerline and the angle across the mitered end, see illustration below. If you wanted to notch a square tube end to create a right-angle corner, like a picture frame, specify a 45° angle. The Mitre-Snug can be ordered for one angle of at least 25° up to 90°. You can always contact us to discuss your needs or send a print of your application


I need more than one angle / I'm not sure what angle I will need.
The Mitre-Snug is designed to consistently notch out one angle. You will need to order additional assemblies each time the tube OD or gauge or angle changes. Remember that this tool is designed for high volume consistent notching of the same application over and over.

I need to put in a drainhole, how can I do this?
You have several choices. The Mitre-Snug can put in a drainhole at the same time it is creating the miter. If you want the drainhole at the deep end of the notch, the drainhole will be added in the first station. If you want the drainhole at the shallow point of the notch, the drainhole will be added in the second station.

If you don't need the drainhole in every part, you can also purchase an Arc-Fit assembly to create a drainhole (only) to be used as an additional operation after the miter is created.

Can I sharpen / replace my tooling?
Yes, you can replace the punches and / or the dies. You can also send in any of these parts to be sharpened. Please visit our page on sharpening for instructions on returning tools to Vogel for sharpening.
