Pipe milling end prep tool for Super Duplex

An I.D. clamping end prep tool for severing and then beveling and facing Super Duplex, stainless steel pipe, and other hard pipe used in subsea pipelines is available from Esco Tool. Esco's Prepzilla Millhog pipe milling end prep tool features a rigid blade lock system and T-15 tool steel cutter blade that transfers heat away from the pipe surface to the chip. Suitable for prepping Super Duplex and other hard pipe in subsea pipelines, it can sever an 8" schedule 160 pipe within 10 minutes and can then compound bevel and face it simultaneously. Esco's Prepzilla Millhog pipe milling end prep tool has only one mandrel and eight sets of clamps for prepping pipe from 1.5" I.D. to 8.625" O.D.

Generating 1,500 ft.-lbs. of torque at the cutting blade, this tool employs dual opposed tapered roller bearings for maximum rigidity and can pull a thick chip without cutting oils.
