"When precision cutting is needed within confined or urban areas, waterjet cutting services offer the safest solution. Especially for gas lines within city limits, cold waterjet technology allows controlled, spark-free cutting.


Traditional torch or plasma cutting introduces heat and ignition hazards—risks eliminated by waterjet methods. NuWave’s waterjet cutting services provide safe, cold, and compliant operations."

NuWave Industries

Gas Line Cutting with Urban Safety Precision

Gas line cutting within city limits is made easier with NuWave Industries and our cutting-edge waterjet technology. Safety takes center stage in our approach, as waterjets provide a flameless and non-combustive solution, eliminating the inherent risks associated with traditional methods. This is particularly crucial in urban environments where the safety of personnel, residents, and infrastructure is paramount. 


Our ultra-high pressured waterjets excel in precision, ensuring accurate cuts without compromising the integrity of gas lines. The flameless nature of waterjets means zero ignition points, creating a secure work environment and reducing the potential for accidents. Moreover, our technology minimizes dust, maintaining a clean and safe atmosphere—an essential feature in densely populated city areas. 


NuWave Industries' waterjets are not only effective in cutting through gas lines but also excel in handling various materials, making them a versatile and efficient choice for urban projects. Embrace the future of gas line cutting with NuWave Industries, where safety, precision, and environmental consciousness converge to meet the unique challenges of city environments.
