RIDGID STRUTSLAYR THE NEW STANDARD IN CUTTING STRUT CHANNELS
Strut channels are used in a wide variety of
applications like Plumbing, HVAC, Fire Protection,
Electrical and Solar for structural support of
pipes, ventilation/air-conditioning/sprinkler
systems as well as cable trays and solar panels.
Before installing, each strut channel needs to be
cut and deburred.
This activity can be a very time-consuming task
when it is done with traditional cutting tools like an
angle grinder, cold cutting and recip saw. Depending
on local regulations and job site conditions, the user
may also need a hot work permit because of excessive
spark generation during cutting, which can lead
to downtime if the permit is not obtained in time,
according to the plan.
For addressing all these pain points and o ering
the user the fastest and safest cutting experience of
Strut Channels, RIDGID has introduced the StrutSlayR
Strut Shear Head. StrutSlayR is attached to a RIDGID
Standard 32 kN Pressing Tool and delivers high
quality, straight and burr-free cuts in 5 seconds or
less. StrutSlayR o ers a shearing operation, where
the material gets displaced, rather than directly cut;
54 NOVEMBER 2021
because of the shearing operation, there are no
grinding or sawing sparks and there is no hot work
permit needed.
Features and specifications
Portability. StrutSlayR Head weighs only 5.4 kg
and is supplied in a sturdy and compact blowmolded
case for easy and safe transportation to
any jobsite. Cut everywhere, anywhere!
Size & wall-thickness. StrutSlayR features fieldreplaceable
dies and it is supplied with either a
41x41 or 21x41 shearing die, covering the most
important two strut channels sizes. StrutSlayR
can be used for cutting Strut Channels with wallthickness
up to 2.5 mm. A minimum amount of
2000 cuts can be expected from each new die set.
E iciency as never before!
Compatibility. StrutSlayR is compatible with the
RIDGID Standard Series 32kN Press Tools, such as
the RIDGID RP 350 and RP 351 Standard Pressing
Tools. Approximately 140 cuts can be expected
from a single full battery charge on e.g. RP 350
with StrutSlayR Head mounted.
Flexibility. StrutSlayR is highly versatile. It can
be easily used on a workbench, on a RIDGID
TRISTAND, on the ground or even on a platform.
Accuracy. A built-in measuring guide is
displayed on the StrutSlayR to accurately
measure the size of the strut that needs to be
cut. The integrated Strut Support prohibits
deformation of the Strut channel and provides a
straight cut every time.
Safety. As there are no grinding or sawing sparks
involved during the cut, there’s no need for a hot
work permit on the job site. Maximum safety,
minimum tool downtime!
