Schallert Enterprises manufactures custom hole saws for demanding pipeline tapping applications. Choose multi-tooth cutters with carbide or HSS tips, or diamond-segment cutters for concrete-lined pipe. With deep tooth profiles designed to reduce material buildup and adaptable mounting options, our cutters help crews achieve dependable, efficient cuts across a wide range of pipe sizes and operating conditions.
Our Custom Hole Saws Services
Purpose-built cutter styles and compatible accessories for reliable pipeline tapping across demanding materials and diameters.
Diamond Segment Cutters
Diamond-segment cutters are engineered for tapping into concrete-lined pipe and other demanding materials. Schallert Enterprises can manufacture diamond-segment cutters up to 72 inches in diameter for large-scale pipeline applications.
Multi-tooth carbide-tipped cutters provide durable cutting performance for pipeline tapping applications. Their deep tooth profile helps limit excess material buildup during the cut, supporting cleaner and more efficient operation.
HSS-tipped multi-tooth cutters offer a practical option for a range of tapping requirements. Custom configurations can be made to adapt to the tapping machine used on your project.
The right cutter supports a more controlled, productive tapping operation. Schallert Enterprises builds large-diameter hole saws in carbide-tipped, HSS-tipped, and diamond-segment styles to address varied pipe materials and job demands. Cutters can be made to adapt to any tapping machine, while deep tooth profiles help prevent excess material buildup. Discuss your required diameter, pipe construction, and machine setup with our team to identify a practical custom solution.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of custom hole saws does Schallert Enterprises manufacture?
Schallert Enterprises manufactures large-diameter hole saws in three primary styles: carbide-tipped multi-tooth cutters, HSS-tipped multi-tooth cutters, and diamond-segment cutters. Carbide and HSS options serve a range of pipeline tapping applications, while diamond-segment cutters are designed for concrete-lined pipe. The appropriate style is selected according to the pipe material, diameter, and job conditions.
Can custom hole saws be made for my tapping machine?
Yes. Schallert Enterprises can make cutters to adapt to any tapping machine. When requesting a custom cutter, provide the tapping machine details, required tap diameter, pipe material, and application requirements. This information helps determine the appropriate cutter style, mounting arrangement, pilot-drill compatibility, and other configuration details needed for the intended operation.
What are diamond-segment cutters used for?
Diamond-segment cutters are used for tapping into concrete-lined pipe and similarly demanding cutting conditions. Their diamond cutting segments are suited to materials that may not be effectively addressed by conventional multi-tooth cutter configurations. Schallert Enterprises manufactures diamond-segment cutters up to 72 inches in diameter, supporting large-diameter pipeline tapping projects.
How large can Schallert custom hole saws be?
Schallert Enterprises makes custom cutters up to 48 inches in diameter. For diamond-segment cutters, the company can manufacture sizes up to 72 inches in diameter. The available size and configuration should be reviewed alongside the tapping machine, pipe construction, and specific job requirements to confirm a suitable cutter solution.
What is the benefit of a deep tooth profile?
Schallert cutters feature a deep tooth profile designed to help prevent excess material buildup during a cut. Managing buildup is important during pipeline tapping because accumulated material can affect cutting efficiency and the overall operation. A cutter should also be matched to the pipe material and application so its tooth style and cutting components suit the work being performed.
How do I choose between carbide and HSS cutter tips?
Carbide-tipped and HSS-tipped cutters are both multi-tooth options, but the best selection depends on the pipe material and cutting application. Share the material being tapped, wall characteristics, tap size, and machine setup with Schallert Enterprises. For concrete-lined pipe, a diamond-segment cutter may be the more appropriate configuration rather than either multi-tooth option.
Do custom hole saws work with pilot drills?
A custom hole saw can be configured as part of a tapping setup that includes a compatible pilot drill. Schallert Enterprises manufactures pilot drills in varied diameters, styles, and lengths to fit tapping machines, with catch wires for coupon retention. Confirming cutter and pilot-drill compatibility helps support the intended tap size and machine arrangement.
What details should I provide when requesting a custom cutter?
Provide the required cutter diameter, pipe material, pipe lining or wall characteristics, tapping machine make or mounting details, and the nature of the application. It is also helpful to identify whether the work involves concrete-lined pipe or another specialized condition. These details allow Schallert Enterprises to review practical cutter style, tip material, and adaptation requirements.
