The Esco COHOG® Split Frame Machine features a range of bevel modules that bolt directly onto a tool slide and use two-sided TiN coated blade inserts to maximize the number of preps per blade. Capable of parting and beveling simultaneously, tool slides are fixed in the carriage with a preset gib plate that eliminates side-to-side wobble for smooth chatter-free operation.

Easy to setup, the Esco COHOG® Split Frame Machine squares itself to the pipe with clamps and is available in eight sizes for pipe ranging from 2" to 48" O.D. Bevel modules include a primary parting module, secondary parting, 37.5◦ bevel, 30◦ bevel, 10 x 37.5◦ bevel, 10 x 30◦ bevel and the simple trip mechanism features a marked pin location that matches all tool slides.

The Esco COHOG® Split Frame Machine is priced from $14,995.00 up, depending upon size and is available for sale or rent.
