Just when you thought it couldn't get any better, Lowbuck Tools designed the Hydraulic Tube/Pipe Notcher to take the manual labor out notching pipe!
Using the foundation of the very well proven manual notcher, the hydraulic version is built to last. With the addition of the hydraulic ram and a 10,000 psi air/hydraulic pump the notcher is effortless to operate. Now you can stand back and notch a tube in seconds by simply stepping on the pump which can be operated with everything from a small house compressor to a large shop compressor providing you have over 40 plus psi. Note, the higher the psi, the faster the operation.
Another great feature is that if you want to use it on a job site it can even be operated from a compressed bottle! Combined with dies that last thousands of cuts this tool will improve quality and production time for your operation and helping you save money all the way around.
Note: All notchers are now black in color as illustrated by the default picture.

I'm pretty sure it arrived the next day. Impressive.
The hydraulic notcher worked just like it is supposed to. We have used a Lowbuck notcher for years and never had any trouble. The hydraulics make the same reliable notcher a one person operation. Hoover's shipping was the only problem, it almost a month to get something that supposedly was in stock.
Bought a pipe notcher and cannot figure out how to change the dies for different size pipes. Product did not come with instructions, cannot find any online, emailed Hoover and they could not tell me other than they would reach out to the vendor but have not heard anything back.
We had high hopes for this little machine, perhaps too high. We do a lot of notching of 14 gauge tubing. We found that the assembly of the product we received was of poor craftsmanship. The "trough" did not align with the cutting head but was offset from center. This caused the tubing to roll during the notching process, and making the machine unable to complete a clean notch. In addition we found that the hand notcher we had used previously was a much faster process, even though we had dedicated a separate large compressor for exclusive use on this machine. The idea and design was simple enough and has value but the proof is in the usage. SAD. $$$ wasted!
