Electric bevelling – end preps
where air is unavailable
ESCO Tool has introduced a new
portable end prep tool that is suitable
for metal fabricating shops and other
applications where compressed air is
not available.
The Esco Millhog® Mini electric pipe
bevelling tool features an 1,800W,
110/230 VAC, 40-60Hz motor and a
self-centring draw rod mechanism that
rigidly mounts into a tube or pipe ID.
Developed for end prep applications
where compressed air is not available, it
uses the same wedge-lock blade locking
system as the air-powered model and
pulls a thick chip without oils.
Suitable for boiler tubes and pipes
from 31.8mm ID to 168.3mm OD, the
bevelling tool has two-speed operation:
low speed (18 rpm) for stainless steel,
P-91 and exotic alloys; and high speed
(60 rpm) for mild and carbon steels. It
can perform any angle of prep, including
compound bevels and J-preps.
