The boilermaker-proven Tube Weasel MILLHOG performs precision bevels for accurate weld fit-up and fits a 2.75" (69.9mm) wide opening — ideal for boiler tube Dutchman repair.

The boilermaker proven Tube Weasel MILLHOG performs precision bevels for accurate weld fit-up and fits a 2.75″ (69.9mm) wide opening. Extremely durable, it features a right angle gear drive system which incorporates dual opposed tapered roller bearings.

This compact tube beveling tool can be powered by pneumatic, electric or battery motors that are easily interchanged and equally powerful. The Tube Weasel MILLHOG uses the EscoLock cutter blade locking system that securely holds the cutter blade in the cutterhead. Cutter blades have a radical chip breaker that directs the chip away from the tube’s surface and minimizes heat build-up.
