The TAG PREP 16 Pipe beveller is a heavy-duty machine designed for mid-to-large diameter pipe bevelling, capable of external/internal bevelling, facing, counterboring, weld removal, J-prepping, and compound bevels. It handles steel and exotic alloys with power options in servo-electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic. Featuring a ratcheted ID jaw locking mechanism and bevel feed control, it operates within a 2.8–15.74 inch (72 – 400 mm) range. Equipped with multi-position tool holders, it enables simultaneous operations. Despite its power, the lightweight PREP 16 is ideal for precision work in on-site, offshore, and nuclear applications.
