Bevelling and calibration tools prepare compatible MLCP and plastic pipe ends before a fitting is inserted. They can restore the correct round shape after cutting, form the required internal or external lead-in and reduce the risk of damaging seals during assembly.
The preparation tool must match the pipe diameter and system specification. A tool intended for a different wall thickness or pipe construction may not produce the correct result.
After cutting the pipe square, use the calibration or bevelling tool fully and evenly, then check that the end is clean and undamaged before inserting the fitting. Preparation should be repeated on every joint rather than treated as an optional step.
Browse the bevelling tools below and use them alongside suitable cutters, fittings and press equipment for consistent MLCP and press-fit installation. You may also find the related pipe cutters and press tool deals useful when completing the system.
