The pipe buggy
THE latest addition to PIPE Ltd’s
extensive handling range is the new Pipe
Buggy. Offering a simple and safemethod
of moving pipe, flanges, fittings and other
heavy items around the workshop or site,
pipes of up to 12" in diameter and 6.1m
in length can be transported with minimal
effort and labour.
It is a simple one-man operation to
use. Lay the buggy upside down on
the pipe; attach the pipe to the buggy,
turn it over using the detachable
handle and re-attach the handle in the
transport position to walk with the pipe
to its required location; depositing the
pipe is just reversal of the lifting
procedure.
The Pipe Buggy comes
complete with a hold down
ratchet strap and detachable
handle. Flat-free tyres are fitted
to the Pipe Buggy as standard
to avoid punctures that can
easily occur on site. At only
31.8kg, with a weight capacity
of 450kg, the Pipe Buggy is a
lightweight yet robust solution
to the problem of transporting pipes,
fittings, and anything else that is too
heavy or awkward to move by hand.

HAVEN Manufacturing has introduced
the latest addition to its product line. The
Haven Model #873 servo tube re-cut
machine enables manufacturers to cut
round, square and rectangular tubing to
a variety of precise lengths, quickly and
automatically. By feeding the material to
be cut through the integrated servo motor
controlled linear slide, the machine is able
to be pre-programmed by the operator
to cut multiple length and quantity parts
from each individual mill length tube.
