| SLOTTING |
B&B Pipe and Tool Co. offers a wide range of choices, enabling our customers to determine the most effective slot arrangement for them. Using state-of the art 16 spindle slotting machines, our highly skilled technicians cut precision slots radial to the center of the pipe. At a high production rate, slotted pipe is milled under close tolerances, resulting in clean openings and consistent slot width throughout the entire pipe. Therefore, no excess metal is removed which preserves maximum pipe strength. Slots can be furnished 1 1/2" to 3" long for pipe of any length with either standard threads and couplings or flush joint threads.
Before slotted pipe is delivered to our customers, all threads and couplings are thoroughly cleaned and lubricated, and the pipe interior is free of burrs or loose metal chips. |
