The SDB 103 is a portable pipe prepping machine that can
face, bevel, compound bevel, J-prep, and counterbore open
ended pipe and tubing. The handheld SDB 103 mounts on
the pipe inside diameter (I.D.) using a self-centering man-
drel clamp system. It will prep open-ended pipe and tubing
from 1.16” to 4.18” I.D. (29.5-106.2 mm), and up to 4.5”
(114.3 mm) outside diameter (O.D.).
The SDB 103 can be easily installed by one operator in just
a few minutes. Different sized clamp leg sets are provided
to cover the full range of operation. Select and install the
appropriate leg set for the pipe you are machining, install
the tooling, and mount the machine on the pipe using the
simple drawbar mechanism.
An air or electric motor drives the rotating tool head. The
operator feeds the tooling into the pipe face using a manual
feed handle. A calibrated feed dial allows precise material
removal. The tool head has three tools slots, allowing mul-
tiple facing, beveling, and counterboring operations to be
performed simultaneously.
The machine includes all accessories and tools necessary
for operation, and is shipped in a durable, waterproof stor-
age case.
