The Model C5H ChamferMate® pipe beveling machine is a heavy duty hydraulic machine with up to 5″ inch OD capacity. With far more power than our pneumatic machines, it can machine j-bevels and other forms of custom bevels on the ends of heavy wall pipe and tubing, as well as chamfer larger sizes of solid bar or studs. The C5H can also be used as a heavy duty deburring machine.

Frequently Asked Questions

What distinguishes the C5H from the C5A model?

The C5H is a heavy-duty hydraulic machine, whereas the C5A is pneumatic. The C5H provides far more power, enabling it to machine j-bevels and other custom bevels on heavy wall pipe and tubing. It can also chamfer larger sizes of solid bar or studs and serves as a heavy-duty deburring machine.

What is the capacity range for the C5H ChamferMate?

The C5H has a capacity of 1/2 inch up to 5 inches OD, with the ability to handle pipe up to 4-1/2 inches. The hydraulic power system provides the muscle needed for heavy wall pipe beveling applications that would be beyond the capabilities of pneumatic models.

What makes the C5H safer than traditional beveling methods?

The C5H eliminates the need for hand-grinding or torching of weld bevels, removing the inherent dangers of those manual methods. The machine features a totally enclosed cutting area and automated operation, significantly reducing operator exposure to hazards while delivering consistent, accurate results.

How long does it take to complete a pipe beveling operation on the C5H?

The C5H typically completes operations in under 20 seconds, normally in the 5-20 second range. This automated speed is many times faster than portable beveling units while also accurately machining weld bevels and facing pipes square for optimal weld preparation.
