Unique features - Unique performance

Why are pipefitters still cutting holes in pipe with impractical tools? Nearly ten years ago, our founder Tor Ole Talgø asked himself that question. With more than 30 years of experience in the Norwegian CNC machining industry, he thoughtfully designed the unique features that make pipe hole cutting safer, faster and more precise than ever.

Drill Smarter. Groove Better.

SnapDrill delivers clean and centered holes without pushing or fighting the drill.
It enables quality pipe fabrication to be performed wherever you need it. Save up to 50% on the cost of conventional prefab by taking charge of your production.

SnapDrill helps contractors all over the world install smarter and safer. Snapdrill revolutionizes the on-site fab process, making it cheaper and more flexible than ever. One fitter with a Snapdrill, can fab faster than you can hang the prefab pipe. The unique specs makes it easy, precise and safe to use wherever you need to drill holes.

Three simple steps to for an installation ready hole.

1. Clamp

Tighten Snapdrill to the pipe with the self-centering clamp, and check the level. This ensures controlled drilling and no broken wrists - dead on the centerline.

2. Drill

1. Clamp

With the machine locked on the pipe, you can just pull the trigger and engage the built in clutch - let Snapdrill do the job for you. Seconds later, you will have a correct hole.

3. Done

1. Clamp

3. Done

When you have drilled through, you open the clamp, clean the spindle and release the debris by reversing the drill. You are now ready for the next one.‍

Long life hole saw

Our hole saws have tungsten carbide teeth with a custom coating. Combined with the stable cutting of the Snapdrill clamp, this makes Snapdrill the most cost-effective machine for hole cutting on the market.

Robust toolbox with wheels

Every Snapdrill kit comes in a robust, IP67-rated toolbox with wheels. It has room for your Snapdrill machines, the battery drill, batteries and hole saws, for safe and practical transport on site.

Standard spare parts included

Every kit comes with a set of standard spare parts. The parts that are most exposed to wear, like the drive shaft, handles and level, can be replaced in the field with simple tools. That way you keep drilling, instead of waiting for a repair.
