announced the global release of its new
line of ID locking pipe bevelling (end
prep) machines. The Prep series is TAG’s
latest innovation in bevelling technology,
and has been developed from over 30
years’ experience in the industry.
TAG Pipe states that, as a company
that prides itself in maintaining its
market position, it is constantly
evaluating its products, modifying and
improving based on customer feedback,
experience and requirements.
The flagship machine in the new range
is the Prep 24. Covering a range of 7 to
24" pipe, it has been designed to suit the
arduous conditions and materials faced
by pipe fabricators. With a removable
centre shaft for rapid and simple set
up in the pipe, the revised, lightweight,
yet heavy duty six-point locking system,
together with new motors (3,200W
electric or 3.5Hp pneumatic) and an

wall thickness, and any material.

bevels are required, the TAG Prep series
of bevelling machines are a solution for
any job site or workshop application.

machines; portable pipe cutting and

clamps; pipe stands and pipe handling
