Cutting
of pipe.

a quick and precise cut,a pipe cutter with a long
blade is recommended.

the pipe.(picture A) |

Sizing
and beveling of pipe.
This
step must be carried out before fitting the insert
into the pipe.
Insert the sizing pin into the pipe,turning it carefully
until a perfectly round circumference has been obtained.
After the pipe has been sized,the same instrument
is used to bevel the end of the pipe;this is to
facilitate entrance of the insert.The sizing pin
has been developed with a miller at the bottom of
the pin so that the same instrument is used both
for sizing and beveling;make sure to remove the
resulting shavings.(picture B) |
