The Edwards Pipe Notcher Dies (AC1047) are precision-engineered components designed for use with Edwards pipe notching machines. This specific set is for 1-1/4" Schedule 40 pipe. The dies consist of two main parts: an upper die and a lower die, which work in conjunction to create a clean saddle cut.

Figure 3.1: Edwards Pipe Notcher Dies (AC1047). This image displays the two primary components of the Edwards Pipe Notcher Dies. The larger, block-shaped die features a curved cutting surface and a label indicating 'BEFORE USE PLEASE READ INSTRUCTIONS'. The smaller, U-shaped die also has a curved surface and labels with safety warnings and an instruction regarding blade length.

These dies are part of a series available in various sizes, including 1/2", 3/4", 1", 1-1/4", 1-1/2", and 2" for Schedule 40 pipe. Edwards also offers dies for Schedule 80 and custom applications.
