Default Cutting galvanised steel tube

I have a need to cut quite a number of lengths of galvanised steel tube
(about 30)

25mm ID, 33.7mm OD e.g. http://www.fhbrundle.com/tube-14.htm

A hacksaw is going to become boring for doing this quite quickly I think

so I
am looking for a faster alternative.

Is this angle grinder territory? If so, can anybody suggest a suitable
cutting wheel?

Otherwise, is a more substantial saw like a cutoff saw required?


You need one of these

or this

anything using cutting disks in angle grinders or Circular Saw is a horrible
noisy way of wasting time.

Perhaps you could take your own advice and hire one.
