Subject: [AFMUG] OT cutting emt

 

I haven’t run a ton of emt in my life but some.  

I have a new garage to wire.

 

What is the best way to cut and deburr emt?

 

Normally I use a sawsall with a hack saw blade in it.  

Never notice what really proficient electricians use. 

 

My method leaves me with an angled cut with plenty of rough edges.  

I am sure there are deburring tools dedicated to emt.  

 

I am considering using a tubing cutter but I don’t want the end swaged down to 
a smaller size that might catch and skin the wire a bit.  

I guess some kind of tapered reamer could then smooth it out.
