Tri Tool 236B Pipe Bevelling Machine
The Tri Tool 236B BEVELMASTER is a hydraulic ID-mounted machine for large-pipe facing, bevelling and counterboring. Standard machining extends to 36 inches OD (914.4 mm). Optional single-point tooling and suitable mounting hardware extend beveling to 60 inches and flange facing to 68 inches.
Hydraulic weld preparation for large pipe
The 236B mounts inside the workpiece and uses an in-line feed system to position the cutting tools. Its hydraulic drive and adjustable tool modules support form-tool or optional single-point machining. An optional ID tracking system is available for suitable out-of-round pipe applications.
Standard mounting and cutting limits
| Specification | Listed value |
|---|---|
| Standard mandrel mounting ID | 11.433–36.000 in (290.4–914.4 mm) |
| Maximum standard machining OD | 36.000 in (914.4 mm) |
| Counterboring range | 11.430–35.000 in (290.3–889.0 mm) |
| Listed standard wall capacity | 1.312 in (33.3 mm), subject to material, tooling and procedure |
| Axial feed travel | 5.000 in (127.0 mm) |
| Drive | Hydraulic; confirm motor and power-unit requirements |
| Listed complete-machine weight | 1,200 lb (approximately 544 kg); confirm configured lifting weight |
Use actual ID, OD and wall thickness for selection. Pipe schedule alone does not establish suitability. Heavier walls require review of the mandrel fit, cutting profile and manufacturer procedures.
Optional single-point machining
| Operation or accessory | Listed range |
|---|---|
| 37.5-degree single-point beveling | 15–60 in diameter (381.0–1524.0 mm) |
| Single-point flange facing | 20–68 in diameter (508.0–1727.2 mm) |
| Optional miter-mandrel extension mounting ID | 35.650–59.532 in (905.5–1512.1 mm) |
| Single-point radial feed travel | 5 in (127.0 mm) nominal; eight selectable feed positions |
Large-diameter machining requires compatible mounting extensions, cutting modules and clearance. Confirm the 236B miter-mandrel configuration and required alignment adjustment with Justram. Radial feed travel and maximum wall capacity are different specifications.
Specify the complete setup
Provide the material grade and hardness, actual pipe dimensions, bevel or flange drawing, required finish and available workspace. Carbon steel, stainless steel, chrome alloys, copper-nickel and aluminium require appropriate tooling; Inconel and other high-temperature alloys may need special procedures.
Confirm the machine, mandrel and jaw sets, drive, stand, tools and operator documents included in the supplied package. Hydraulic supply, hoses and lifting arrangements must suit the configured equipment. Justram can review these requirements before quotation.
