The Arc-Snug is designed for ONE angle, 25º to 90º, between the centerline of the notched and mating tubes.

The Arc-Snug Angular Notching Tool is designed to notch a tube end to fit another tube end at an angle.

The tool will produce a notch at one specific angle, from 25° to 90°.

Select your housing below based on the tube OD to be notched. You will then need to select assemblies for each tube size & angle.

  • No time-consuming fixturing and set-up
  • No chip removal requiring secondary handling
  • Exact angle every time
  • Long-lasting, sharpenable tooling

What is the difference between the Arc-Fit Angular and the Arc-Snug?

There are several differences, including:

Arc-Fit Angular
Two stations – three strokes (two in 2nd station)
Normally used with pipe
Leaves gaps, joints commonly stick welded
#75 Housing can be used in Vogel CSP-25-SA Power Unit
Arc-Snug
Two stations – two strokes
Normally used with tubing
Snug, gap-free fit-up, also suitable for brazing
Longer stroke not suitable for Vogel CSP-25-SA Power Unit

I’m making handrail and my uprights are a different size pipe.
You can order an Arc-Fit Angular custom assembly designed for one size pipe to fit a different size. For example, perhaps you need to notch 1-1/2″ pipe to fit against an 1-1/4″ pipe. No problem! Just specify the details at time of order. Note that each time the angle or pipe sizes change, a new assembly is required. Different assemblies can fit the same housing as long as the notched pipe does not exceed the housing’s maximum capacity.

I need to put in a drainhole, how can I do this?

You have several choices. The Arc-Fit Angular can put in a drainhole at the same time it is creating the notch.The drainhole would be at the deep point of the notch and created in the first 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 notch 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.
