Baileigh TN-210H Hole Saw Tube Notcher
The Baileigh TN-210H is a versatile manual hole saw pipe notcher that delivers professional quality angle cuts in round tubing up to 2 inches (50.8mm) diameter. Whether you're building roll cages, go karts, or custom fabrication projects, this economical tool gives you precision notches up to 50 degrees in less than 30 seconds.
Looking for an affordable way to notch tubing without compromising on quality? The TN-210H brings professional fabrication capabilities to your garage or workshop. This isn't just another budget tool. It's engineered with the same attention to detail you'd expect from industrial grade equipment, featuring thick 1/2-inch plate steel construction and industrial-grade needle bearings that you can actually replace when needed.
What makes this notcher special is its versatility. You can mount it vertically in your drill press for quick, precise cuts on smaller pieces. Working on a larger frame assembly? Simply mount it horizontally on your workbench or secure it in a vise, grab your portable drill, and you're ready to go. The 1 inch ground and polished spindle shaft minimizes vibration, which means cleaner cuts and longer tool life. Plus, it works with standard hole saws (you probably already have some), giving you flexibility in your notching operations.
The TN-210H excels at those angled joints that make or break a fabrication project. Whether you're welding up a rock crawler chassis, building custom furniture, or creating artistic metalwork, this tool delivers the accuracy you need without the hefty price tag of automated systems. It's built to handle everything from thin wall tubing to schedule 40 pipe, making it the go to choice for hobbyists and professional fabricators who value both quality and economy.

Applications
- Custom Vehicle Fabrication: Perfect for building roll cages, chassis modifications, and tube frames for off-road vehicles, rock crawlers, and racing applications.
- Go-Karts and Recreational Vehicles: Create precise joints for go-kart frames, mini bikes, and other recreational vehicle projects where clean, accurate tube notching is essential.
- Furniture and Railing Construction: Ideal for fabricating custom metal furniture, handrails, gates, and architectural metalwork requiring angled tube connections.
- Agricultural and Equipment Repair: Excellent for on-site repairs and modifications of agricultural equipment, trailers, and utility frames in farm and ranch settings.
- Artistic Metalwork and Sculptures: Enables artists and craftspeople to create complex geometric designs and sculptures with precisely angled tube intersections.
- General Fabrication and Maintenance: Perfect for general shop use, maintenance work, prototype development, and custom fabrication projects across various industries.
Key Features & Benefits
- Dual Mounting Flexibility: You're not locked into one setup. Mount it vertically in your drill press for bench work or horizontally in a vise for larger assemblies. This flexibility means you can tackle any size project without workflow compromises.
- Lightning-Fast Notching Speed: Complete accurate notches in under 30 seconds. That means less time spent on prep work and more time welding and building. When you're in the middle of a project, speed matters.
- Industrial-Grade Durability: Built from solid 1/2-inch plate steel with replaceable needle bearings. This isn't a disposable tool; it's an investment that'll serve you for years. When bearings eventually wear out, you can swap them rather than replacing the entire unit.
- Smooth, Vibration-Free Operation: The 1-inch ground and polished spindle shaft delivers noticeably smoother cuts with minimal chatter. You'll get cleaner edges that require less cleanup, saving time and improving your weld quality.
- Generous Capacity Range: Handles tubing from 3/4 inch up to 2 inches (50.8mm) outside diameter. Whether you're working with light fence tubing or heavy schedule 40 pipe, this notcher has you covered.
- Adjustable Angle Settings: Cut notches at angles from 0 to 50 degrees. The angle adjustment system lets you set up compound joints quickly, essential for complex frame geometries.
- Universal Hole Saw Compatibility: Works with standard 1/2-inch and 5/8-inch hole saws. You're not stuck buying proprietary consumables. Use the hole saws you already own or choose from widely available options at competitive prices.
- Backed by Solid Warranty: Includes a 1-year parts warranty and lifetime technical support from Baileigh's experienced team. When you have questions or need guidance, real fabrication experts are just a phone call away.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to buy hole saws separately?
Yes, hole saws are sold separately. This actually works in your favor because you can choose the specific sizes and quality levels you need for your projects. The TN-210H accepts standard 1/2-inch and 5/8-inch arbor hole saws, which are readily available at most hardware stores or online retailers. Many fabricators already own suitable hole saws, so you won't be paying for duplicates.
What type of drill do I need to power this notcher?
You'll need a 1/2-inch portable drill with sufficient power. A corded drill with at least 7-8 amps works great, or a robust 18V cordless drill will handle most notching tasks. The key is having enough torque to drive the hole saw through your material smoothly. If you're notching thicker-wall tubing or schedule 40 pipe, a corded drill typically provides more consistent power.
Can this notcher handle schedule 40 pipe?
Absolutely. The TN-210H is built tough enough to notch schedule 40 pipe up to 2 inches diameter. Users have successfully notched everything from thin-wall EMT conduit to heavy schedule 40 steel pipe. Just make sure you're using quality bi-metal or carbide hole saws and applying cutting fluid for best results and longest tool life.
How accurate are the angle markings?
The angle markings are painted onto the steel body and provide good reference points for most fabrication work. For critical applications requiring exact angles, some users recommend double-checking with a protractor or angle finder. The adjustment mechanism locks securely once set, maintaining your angle throughout multiple cuts.
Is this suitable for professional fabrication shops or just hobbyist use?
The TN-210H serves both markets well. It's priced for hobbyists but built with professional-grade components. Many professional fabricators keep one on hand for field work, repairs, or situations where mobility matters more than production speed. For high-volume production environments, you might eventually want to upgrade to a motorized unit like the TN-300, but the TN-210H will absolutely deliver professional results at a fraction of the cost.
