MX FUEL Pipe Threading Machine
Milwaukee Tool has introduced its new MX FUEL Pipe Threading Machine using the company’s REDLITHIUM batteries that allows threads to be made wherever its most convenient.
In addition to the improved design, the new cordless pipe threading machine enables easy transportation and fast set up and clean up, even in remote sections of a jobsite.
The new pipe threading machine comes with the new Milwaukee NPT pipe threading die head with micro-adjust which enables easy and controlled die adjustments and its auto release mechanism controls the thread length.
The machine is ideal for use with Milwaukee’s new line of universal pipe threading dies and compatible with other universal style dies.
It features a collapsible cart, built with gas springs to assist the tool up to working height and integrated wheels allow for easy transportation over uneven surfaces.
When moving the machine, the self-contained oil reservoir keeps oil within the basin and eliminates the need to drain the oil.
Additionally, the reservoir minimizes the mess created by the threading process by removing the need for a bucket oiler, providing the cleanest threading experience available.
For jobs requiring threading and grooving, the machine’s rear hammer chuck enables a quick transition and connection of roll grooving attachments without teardown or use of additional adapters.
The machine provides the power to thread from 1/8-in. to 2-in.up to 2-in. black iron pipe, stainless steel, rigid metal conduit (RMC) and more.
When paired with the included MX FUEL REDLITHIUM XC406 battery packs, the threading machine allows for all day runtime, delivering up to (140) cut, reamed, and threaded ¾-in. pipe ends per pack.
