Tri Tool
The weld starts
with the prep.
Tri Tool builds portable machine tools that cut, face, square and bevel pipe and tube to a machined finish — no torch, no heat affected zone, no grinding to fix it afterward. Square ends and consistent land is what makes an orbital weld repeatable. This is the front half of that job.
We carry it, we support it, and we service and calibrate it — in our shop or on your floor.

300 Series — tube facing and squaring
The high purity workhorses. OD saddle mount, cordless in most cases, and they leave an end square enough to drop straight into a closed weld head. Chips are directed away from the ID, which is the whole point on pharma, semiconductor and food-grade tube. The STS-4 and STS-8 have replaced the old 304 and 306.

Severing — cutting tube in place
Cut tube and thin wall pipe cold, in place, without deforming the wall. Collet and clamshell mounts so a crew can move down a rack instead of breaking the line apart.

200 Series — end prep and beveling
ID mount and OD mount machines for facing, beveling, counterboring and single point work. The Surefire machines use self-centering radiused pads so Sch 5 and Sch 10 stainless does not go egg shaped in the clamp. The CouponMaster exists purely to prep test coupons — which matters if you are qualifying welders.

600 Series — clamshell split-frame lathes
When the pipe is already in the rack, the machine has to open around it. Split-frame clamshells sever and bevel in-line pipe in a single setup, with low profile bodies for tight rack spacing and heavy wall capacity on the RBL-G2 frames.

DuraBits and tooling
Coated tool bits that face and square high purity tube ends and hold an edge far longer than uncoated bits — and they throw the chip away from the ID instead of into it. DuraBit 1, 2 and 3 run on the 300 and 500 Series squaring modules, including short and extreme short perch setups; DuraBit 4, 5 and 6 are for the 208B and 214B.
We stock bits, blades, collets and clamping tooling, plus tungsten precision ground to your specification for the welding side of the job.
