Low profile tool block slides bring the cut line closer to the back of the machine by reducing axial clearance required for cutting. This makes the low profile slide ideal when severing or bevelling is required on short runs of straight pipes. Requires a clamshell 203.2mm (8") larger than the nominal pipe size. Can be used to sever and bore on as little as 63.5mm to 88.9mm of pipe (2-1/2" to 3-1/2").
