Thanks! This was helpful. I'm doing some home plumbing and had trouble finding the insulation elbows and tees that I need, so I wondered if the pros might simply make what they need. This was straightforward.

I use a steak knife, but as you demonstrated a good serrated blade works great. I did not know about the template on the box until an insulator showed me. Great tip.

I use 3 different knives depending on the size of the insulation. The best knife I have is a meat slicing knife, it's very thin and rigid, a 8" produce knife and a 14" cheese knife, all of them are sharp enough to shave with. I've used the saw blade method and bread knife method. Both cutters leave very uneven surfaces that make gaps and pockets. It's no good for Low Temperature refrigeration they will always leak after a week or less. I also use gaffers tape to seal over my cuts even though they're glued. I've learned from experience you have to have a razor sharp cutting blade and know how to use a steel and also how to reshrpen a knife. The less is better method for the glue is definitely the way to go. Great video! 😉

good videos, you should do one on the fiberglass pipe insulation. Some of these guys Ive seen do such incredible work with this stuff, and you don't really appreciate it, until you've tried it yourself. I knew a guy, Jay Faxon, from Andover in the 90s that I worked with CAS out of Framingham. Liked your truck. Oh, do those Klein strippers work good with 12 and 20 ga wire? I have a greenlee and it only does well with 14 to 20 ga wire, and the dam thing was $60.....

We never use the fiberglass ones but they do look good when done right . Those Klein strippers work for 12 gauge. That’s the biggest size they’ll do they go down to 16 gauge i believe

Would you suggest doing those like that where the suction from a WIF goes to a walk in cooler and to the roof... sometimes water seems to get trap at the P-traps and form balls of ice??
@Cscrefandhvac

Mauricio Villanueva yes , usually that ice is caused from ripped insulation or where the insulation was cut to fit around the pipe and taped

Do you ever lightly torch the edges when they don’t line up exactly just to “melt” the sharp edges?

Before I knew how to do this I had a hell of a time insulating elbows and traps. I think my journeyman just liked to watch the dumb apprentice struggle.
