Ridgid B-500 Transportable Pipe Beveller
RIDGID B-500 Transportable Pipe Beveller
The RIDGID B-500 Transportable Pipe Beveller is a professional pipe preparation tool designed to produce precise, consistent welding bevels quickly and efficiently. Engineered for 4-inch and larger pipe and compatible flat plate, the B-500 delivers a machined finish without flames or grinding sparks, making it ideal for industrial pipe fabrication, welding, construction, and maintenance applications.
Fast, Spark-Free Pipe Bevelling
The RIDGID B-500 Pipe Beveller can set up and bevel 10-inch Schedule 40 pipe in as little as 45 seconds under specified conditions. Its compact design mounts quickly and produces accurate bevels in a single pass.
Six replaceable cutter inserts work simultaneously to create a smooth, machined finish. The pipe remains cool to the touch immediately after bevelling.
