Look how easy it is to remove the external jacket from RC MAXIprotect® PP / PE pipes

  • Set the cut depth with the knob (equal to the pipe jacket thickness – the depth range is 0 – 5 mm).
  • Press the cutting end under the external jacket – perpendicularly to the pipe face.
  • Press the cutting part (with RADPOL inscription) to the pipe, grab the handle with another hand, and press downwards to rotate the toothed roller and slide the whole tool along the pipe axis. In such way the jacket is cut.
  • After cutting the jacket on appropriate length stop the tool and without removing from under the jacket rotate it perpendicularly to the pipe axis.
  • Then continue cutting the jacket as before, but on the pipe perimeter, until the jacket piece is completely cut off. Continue that operation, cutting the jacket on length allowing for installation of clamps of butt welding machine or electrofusion fitting. (For the machines equipped with clapms fitted to the pipe outher diameter it is not necessarily to remove the jacket).
  • After removing the required jacket piece clean and degrease the surface in a standard way in order to make the electrofusion welding (muffs, couplers, saddle fittings, etc.) or butt welding.
