I am wondering on the possibility of this soil pipe being made of asbestos. Before cutting with a dremel I decided it was probably better to get a second opinion on it.

You are correct. Without a mask. A very fine dust.Yep azzy
also looks like you’ve already started
All of it up to the manhole I assume?Will need to be replaced
What are my alternatives?
What kind of asbestos pipe is that then? All the asbestos cement pipework I've come across seems to be cast and thick, whereas this appears to be made from a helicoidal roll of strip.
Is it pitch fibre? If that's a pitch fibre pipe, it might not necessarily contain asbestos, though I'd want a sample tested to confirm.
You have to assume that everything that might contain asbestos does contain asbestos until a lab test says otherwise.Is it pitch fibre? If that's a pitch fibre pipe, it might not necessarily contain asbestos, though I'd want a sample tested to confirm.
