A full line of hand-held bevelers that feature extra-rigid blade locking systems and blades incorporating a radical chipbreaker to transfer heat without cutting fluids has been introduced by Esco Tool. Millhog Right Angle Bevelers feature the EscoLock wedge-style blade lock system which has a large clamping surface and double-threaded screw to hold blades rigidly.

Coupled with cutter blades that incorporate a radical chipbreaker which draws heat away from the tube or pipe surface to prevent workhardening and extend blade life, this system enables bevelers to bevel, face and bore simultaneously without using cutting fluids.

Available for OD beveling, flat facing and ID boring at any angle of prep including "j" preps for orbital welders, cutter blades for Millhog Right Angle Bevelers are offered in TiN coated and Hard Lube versions. The EscoLock blade holder reduces vibration and allows the blade get under the material to pull a thick chip and produce a smooth finish.
